Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 2 "Hymn of Praise"

[@michaelpatterson2955]

Magnificent music and lyrics! All praise to the great God Who is honored by this musical tribute.

[@seanmusicianinklang2411]

I am deeply in love with Mendelssohn... First is his 5th, then his 2nd symphony! Thanks, David!

[@ChristieZimer]

Splendid and very Joyous ❤

(guest) Romsey Choral Society did this in Romsey Abbey : I was glad to be part of it. 🌈💐🎼😊🇬🇧

A good performance, the only English spea,king version I could find on line. Looking forward to singing it in the Royal Albert Hall July 8th

W O N D E R F U L !!! Can't wait to sing this masterpiece in May. Amazing conduction and interpretation on this one and kind of rare in English!

[@barbaracollner8742]

Glorious

[@jimslancio]

24:30 "I Waited for the Lord" for soloists and chorus is often done separately as a church anthem.

Perfect

[@rea118]

Happy to hear it in English. Loved the soloists. Orchestra was a little disappointing in spots, but overall great interpretation of this lovely piece.

[@jennedortmund7510]

The English lyrics completely destroy the piece. It's a shame.

[@samuelfabian9737]

The performance is magnificent - but I still prefer the original version. Compare "The Night is Departing" with "Die Nacht ist vergangen!" Mendelssohn's "Lobgesang" in German - and Handel's Messiah in English!

주를 기다릴 때 Duet and Chorus 24:30

[@alanmorr3635]

A very good performance, however, it is a shorter version, usually, the chorus doesn't come in until around 23 minutes, in this version it was at least 10 minutes earlier, nevertheless, I liked this performance, the first time I have heard it in English

[@DavidChinMusic]

Hi Alan - yes, we only did the first and the last movements - which connected very well.

[@alanmorr3635]

@@DavidChinMusic NO NO, I am not complaining about an excellent performance by the students, I think only 10 minutes were missed, I go to concerts a lot performed my students, this performance was excellent, 5 stars.

[@DavidChinMusic]

@@alanmorr3635 Thank you for your encouragements, and they weren't being taken the wrong way! :-) Really appreciate you took time to watch and share your comments with me!

[@jimslancio]

24:30 Here's the beginning of "I Waited for the Lord" for soloists and chorus, often done as a church anthem.

[@aeoliankid1]

Why are the second and third movements of the sinfonia missing?

[@DavidChinMusic]

Thank you for watching! There was a time limit for my doctoral recital, and therefore we have decided to leave out the second and the third movements.

Rehearsal D 49:00

[@canyoubelievethis220]

Beautiful performance, but ... the conductor should have given when/where the orchestra should have picked up their instruments just before playing. Maybe 10 seconds? Maybe 15 seconds? It was very awkward to see them doing it differently.

[@michaelowens5394]

Every orchestra I've ever watched picks up their instruments at different times. What orchestra have you seen which synchronizes that?

주께 간구할지어다. Chorus 22:31

[@SamoyedsUK]

In English.

[@johnlang3233]

A good effort, but lacking pace & energy, especially towards the end.

[@austinnelson-williams5608]

True really on the night is departing that's were they started slowing down the time but am sure they know what they did that for ... All in a good performance

[@DavidChinMusic]

@John Lang Thank you for your comment, and will keep this in mind when I get a chance to conduct this again next time.
