Composer/Series: Sigiswald Kuijken Conducts Schneider & Mendelssohn
Description
The comparison of works written by two fundamentally different composers within a very narrow time frame of perhaps two to three years frequently proves to be a very interesting listening exercise. This comparison generates even greater suspense when one of the two currently ranks as a world-renowned and recognized genius while the oeuvre of the other continues to lie largely unnoticed in the archives. In what in addition is still a rare interpretative option on historical instruments, here with the Cappella Coloniensis under Sigiswald Kuijken, we are now once again offering you the opportunity to engage in such a musical comparison between Felix Mendelssohn and Friedrich Schneider, who is practically forgotten today. Here his Symphony No. 17 of 1822 is heard in confrontation with the Violin Concerto in D minor composed by Mendelssohn during the same year and the Symphony No. 1 in C minor composed by him two years later. Hiro Kurosaki is our dazzling soloist.
