Mendelssohn: Das Märchen von der schönen Melusine ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Paavo Järvi

[@hyseo1121]

All overtures from mendelsshon are pieces from heaven. Really great. I love this piece.

[@Stefan-ne1eq]

This quiet opening, so beautiful - the undulatory eighth notes of the woodwinds, then the yearning theme, almost haunting in its beauty. This is one of the finest pieces I have heard in a long time.

[@Symphonicprelude]

Absolutely Beautiful ! And a superb performance ! This should be played more often.

[@notaire2]

Endlich kommt anderes richtige Programm! Es ist eine sehr lebhafte Leistung dieses kompakten und wunderschönen Meisterwerks mit seidigen Töne der Streicher und milden Töne der Holzbläser. Ausgezeichnetes Orchester!

[@meikebohn8424]

Die schöne Melusine ist eine gefühlsstarke, geheimnisvolle Frau!

[@Dhalia1800]

Bravo! hr-Sinfonieorchester, Paavo Järvi... and Mendelssohn

[@paulhoffmann3405]

Wonderful piece, nice conducting. Wagner probably nocticed too - the opening theme sounds a lot like the beginning of "Rheingold". ;)

[@hyseo1121]

Along with his mid summer night dream overture, this is the finest one of all the concert overtures ever written.

[@thomasbirkhahn9616]

Incredibly beautiful music! Mendelssohn was unique!

[@cstamitz]

It is a real shame that this great overture is so rarely played by symphony orchestras. And the performance here is pure magic.

[@OthmarLeib]

wunderbar gespielt! Danke! :-)

[@giobannearanmena5000]

Oh la música! No puedo imaginar un mundo sin instrumentos musicales, sin partituras, sin músicos. Sería como perder la mitad de nuestra humanidad.

[@charlesyeh8890]

Mendelssohn’s musics were purposely ignored during Nazi reign. His works were only gradually redeemed to the rank they deserved after the war. What a sad history.

[@joot1032]

Was für ein lahmes Publikum!

[@thomasbirkhahn9616]

Vielleicht wegen des Ambientes?

vielen Danke ! ich war neben Eberbach, im August (Urlaub )

[@renaldtremblay8333]

Images et musique magnifiques!

[@alexj1161]

Nice performance. I like Mendelssohn's use of counterpoint at 5:37

[@gwyster501]

The oboe part at 4:35 is Heaven

[@ivanbeshkov1718]

Likely influence on Bruckner who in turn influenced many, including Dvorak.

[@petatap]

That's where Wagner copied from for his "Rheingold".

klaus peter kraa Eigentlich hatte ich das ja geschrieben .. Mein Englisch muss sooo schlecht sein.

[@gerardbegni2806]

The similarity has sometimes been signalled by crirics, you are right.

[@cristobalcolonia]

No exactamente una copia, pero si que hay algún motivo parecido en la flauta y el clarinete

[@antoniong1449]

„Besser bewacht des schlummernden Bett, sonst büßt ihr beide das Spiel!“ 4:24

Legendär!

[@jackfletcher1000]

Would some kind person translate the name of this lovely piece in English please

[@hrSinfonieorchester]

"The Fairy Tale of the Beautiful Melusine" is the english name of this Mendelssohn piece

@@hrSinfonieorchester Melusine (French: [melyzin]) or Melusina is a figure of European folklore and mythology, a female spirit of fresh water in a sacred spring or river. She is usually depicted as a woman who is a serpent or fish from the waist down (much like a mermaid).

Warst du schon mal auf so einem Konzert? Als ich bei einem Stück von Prokofjew "mitgegangen" bin, hat der Opa hinter mir direkt angefangen gegen meinen Stuhl zu treten, um Regungslosigkeit einzufordern :D

[@1mikeynyc]

Would someone please explain to me the prejudice that some "experts" have against Mendelssohn? I have heard that because he lived a generally happy life (except for dying of a broken heart at 38!) he did not have enough angst to write deep music. What BS. NOBODY wrote more memorable melodies. Not Schubert, Schumann, not even the great Ludwig. To me that counts for something.

[@dylank3795]

Mendelssohn was a great composer who wrote great melodies, but Tchaikovsky and Beethoven beat him at that haha

[@pelonpanzalegre]

enviness - Felix was the best of the best

[@jimcrawford5039]

He died of a stroke.

[@jimcrawford5039]

He was also a great conductor, pianist and organist!
