The Best of Mendelssohn

Time stamps: 00:00-40:50 Violin concerto in E minor Op.64 {1838} 40:50-1:04:15 Midsummers night dream {1826} Mendelssohn was a very talented composer and he worked with Schumann for almost all his life. Sadly, he died at the very young age of 38 of a fatal stroke.

To me, his violin concerto is the greatest among violin concertos. I first heard it while I was sitting in a National Guard army jeep when I was still in high school. It was heavenly and inspired me to pursue violin playing. Now at age 80 I can say I can play this piece with ease.

Distinguished composer. Briliant. I introduced the famous composers to my granddaughters every night since I am sleeping with them in the same bed . Corona virus positive effect. When we got to mendelson they asked for him again and again. I got moref familiar with his music and realized his genius. He uses all the families of the orchestra in a unique way and within every group he creates dynamic and magic. There is flow and contrast and gentleness and drama....so well crafted. He deserved more recognition like the other famous composers from Bach to shostakovich....before andafter.

Mendelssohn is one of the best composer I love. His Elijah oratorio is so awesome and so difficult. When I sing it with my choir church group, it took more that 3 months to learn it.

[@steveonions1192]

Agree that Elijah is awesome. I sang it as a 16-year-old and it marked me indelibly for my whole life (I'm 56 now). I wouldn't say it's difficult though - yes you need to be a competent singer to sing it (and as a male voice you need to have a good range - I sang 1st Tenor at 16, I could just about manage 1st Bass now). If you want something difficult from the 19th Century, try Noenia by Brahms.

[@robbybonfire23]

So true, re Mendelssohn being under-rated. His dying at 38 didn't help him develop his legacy. But still, the violin concerto, A Midsummer Night's Dream Suite, and Symphonies # 3 and 4, ensure his place in the pantheon of the world's finest composers.

In my opinion the best are Mendelssohn, Schumann, and of course Beethoven and Mozart. I couldn't pick a favourite out of those 4 at gunpoint. But of course, that's just my (subjective) opinion :)

Perhaps Tchaikovsky deserves inclusion? What a genius across a broad spectrum of music from ballet masterpieces like Swan Lake and The Nutcracker, to opera, especially Eugene Onegin, to his symphonic masterpieces. I am in awe of Tchaikovsky's range of genius!
