Mendelssohn: Symphony No. 4 in A major, Op. 90 "Italian" (with Score)

Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Symphony No. 4 in A major, Op. 90 "Italian" (with Score) Composed: 1831 - 1833 Conductor: Georg Solti Orchestra: Chicago Symphony Orchestra 00:00 1. Allegro vivace (A major) 10:10 2. Andante con moto (D minor) 16:58 3. Con moto moderato (A major) 24:30 4. Saltarello: Presto (A minor) The Italian Symphony was finished in Berlin on 13 March 1833, in response to an invitation for a symphony from the London (now Royal) Philharmonic Society; he conducted the first performance himself in London on 13 May 1833 at a London Philharmonic Society concert. The symphony's success, and Mendelssohn's popularity, influenced the course of British music for the rest of the century. The Germania Musical Society of Boston gave the first performance in the United States, on 1 November 1851, with Carl Bergmann conducting. Mendelssohn himself, however, remained dissatisfied with the composition, which cost him, he said, some of the bitterest moments of his career; he revised it in 1834 and even planned to write alternative versions of the second, third, and fourth movements. He never published the symphony, and it appeared in print only in 1851; thus it is numbered as his "Symphony No. 4", even though it was in fact the third he composed.
