About

The youthful vitality of the three composers in this programme permeates their works, written at the ages of thirty (Haydn), twenty-two (Mendelssohn) and nineteen (Schubert) respectively. In his Symphony No. 19, composed just after entering the service of Prince Esterházy, Haydn lays the foundations of Viennese classicism. Schubert and Mendelssohn bring this inheritance to fruition while affirming their romantic sensibilities. Schubert gives his Symphony No. 4 a colour hitherto unprecedented in orchestral music, and its more sombre tone justifies the subtitle “Tragic” added by the composer himself. Mendelssohn’s Piano Concerto No. 1 blends intimate lyricism with a gossamer-light vivacity which enthralled the London audience in 1832: “Never in my life have I enjoyed such success. The audience was drunk with enthusiasm,” confided the author of this brilliant score.
