Vienna Philharmonic: Mendelssohn & Brahms
$134-$243
Felix Mendelssohn — Symphony No. 3 in A minor, Op. 56 "Scottish"
Johannes Brahms — Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73
The Vienna Philharmonic opens with Felix Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture, a self-contained masterpiece dreamt up in wonderment upon visiting the Scottish archipelago. It pairs wonderfully with his evocative "Scottish" Symphony, which he began composing just days before Hebrides, eventually becoming his final completed symphony. Rounding out the program is Brahms's Second Symphony, with its lyrical and relatively sunny demeanor drawing frequent comparisons to Beethoven's "Pastoral" Symphony.
