Mendelssohn’s ‘Reformation’
More details
Felix Mendelssohn dispenses with the Lutheran inspiration for his ‘Reformation Symphony’ in just a few bars, but the work as a whole is a ray of sunshine – clean, bright, and deliciously good-humoured. Tonight, it is paired with a second work by the young Mendelssohn. His Hebrides Overture conjures scenes of his ‘lonely island’, the mysterious Fingal’s Cave in Scotland, seen on an 1829 excursion to the Isle of Staffa.
