After Haydn, Beethoven, and Franz Schubert, Jordi Savall continues his journey into the 19th century with the Italian Symphony of Felix Mendelssohn, a composer he records for the first time. He delivers two versions of the work: the one that was performed at the worldwide premiere in 1833 and the revised one from 1834. The most conspicuous changes are to be found in the last three movements. The comparison of the two scores and the performance on period instruments take us as close to Mendelssohn’s work and original intention as we will ever get. Thanks to Savall’s insightful conducting, there is still something to discover in Mendelssohn’s most famous symphony.
