QUALITY NOT QUANTITY
DAVID BRYSON | Glossop Derbyshire England | 08/18/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"At this low price I can give this 5 stars although it is only 45 minutes of music. What I bought it for was to improve my knowledge of Mendelssohn which was limited to the better known works, and it is a record that has grown on me. These 2 string symphonies were written when he was about 14, and they are good and attractive music, not just accomplished apprentice-work. I don't hear in them the fully individual voice that I hear in the Midsummer Night's Dream overture or the Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso or the Octet that came not much later, but these string symphonies need no condescension, and I imagine they would be established in the standard repertory if we thought they were by Schubert. The performances are excellent -- robust and lyrical as required without exaggeration or idiosyncrasies. The string tone is quite outstandingly good."
