Sinfonie Nr. 4 »Italienische« / Sinfonie Nr. 1

Album by Felix Mendelssohn & Kammerakademie Potsdam & Antonello Manacorda

Sinfonie Nr. 4 'Italienische' and Sinfonie Nr. 1 are symphonies by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, composed in 1833 and 1824 respectively. The earlier work displays youthful classical clarity with compact structures and spirited motifs, while the Italian Symphony is characterised by sunnier tonalities, brisk rhythms and vivid orchestral colour that reflect Mendelssohn's travel-inspired move towards a more Romantic, descriptive symphonic language.
