The king was inspired by a presentation of Sophocles's Antigone which featured music by Mendelssohn, and was the first of several commissions for the composer to write music to accompany the king's favorite plays. It is interesting to note that the work's dazzling overture was actually written a full sixteen years earlier, and was not originally intended to be performed in conjunction with Shakespeare's play. This recording from Ivan Fischer and his Budapest Festival Orchestra captures the magical spirit of this music as never before. The program is complemented appropriately by three orchestral songs of Fanny Mendelssohn.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u0026amp;quot;A Midsummer Night\u0026amp;#39;s Dream\u0026amp;quot;, Overture, Op. 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncidental Music To \u0026amp;quot;A Midsummer Night\u0026amp;#39;s Dream\u0026amp;quot;, Op. 61: I.
