Mendelssohn / Pike / Cbso Youth Chorus / Gardne- Mendelssohn in Birmingham, Vol. 4
For this new recording of orchestral works by Mendelssohn, the CBSO and it's principal guest conductor, Edward Gardner, join the violinist Jennifer Pike, who made a remarkable debut at Carnegie Hall this year. She here performs the Violin Concerto in E minor, the piece that launched her career thirteen years ago when she became the youngest-ever winner of the BBC Young Musician of the Year Award. This recording contains another of Mendelssohn's later works: the Incidental Music for A Midsummer Night's Dream (1843), in which he managed to recapture and amplify the unique magic of his early years.
