Mendelssohn: Symphonies Nos. 1-5, Overtures, A Midsummer Night's Dream (4 SACDs + Blu-ray Audio)

LSO Live presents Sir John Eliot Gardiner’s award-winning Mendelssohn series together in its entirety for the first time. Captured over three seasons during critically acclaimed concerts in the Barbican Hall, this set offers listeners the definitive account of Gardiner’s unique take on Mendelssohn with the London Symphony Orchestra: a blend between the conductor’s wide-ranging expertise and the orchestra’s signature sound.

Мендельсон написал пять симфоний (две вошли в золотой фонд мировой музыки), но не менее большой интерес в творчестве представляют программные увертюры.

Сон в летнюю ночь — концертная увертюра и музыка Феликса Мендельсона для одноименной комедии Уильяма Шекспира.
