Mendelssohn is erroneously known as a conservative composer. Yet, his orchestral works such as this concerto, or the “Italian” Symphony, Midsummer Night’s Dream, or The Hebrides burst with imagination in effect, form, and feel. We will discuss the violin concerto and watch HSO’s performance with Amy Beth Horman, violin, from December 2014. This program will be presented on Zoom. A link will be shared with registrants in advance of the program.
