Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy

Double Concerto in D-Minor

Written in 1823, this magical 'double' concerto was composed in three-movement form (Allegro-Adagio-Allegro molto) and represents an unusual concerto pairing. It is pure Mendelssohn at its best! The central Adagio movement is a wonderful Song Without Words. Features many solo passages for each soloist, to beautiful effect. Not to be missed!Includes an authoritative performance edition of the violin score, edited by Mario Hossen and newly engraved and printed on high-quality ivory paper.Performed by: Mario Hossen- violin, Adrian Oetiker- pianoAccompaniment: Les Orpheistes Chamber Orchestra ViennaConductor: Joel Mathias Jenny
