From Chicago Symphony
Vast and noble, Beethoven’s Violin Concerto set a bold precedent for the concertos of the 19th century. Isabelle Faust, a “stylish, subtle violinist” (The New York Times), brings all her insight and golden sound to this revolutionary work. Felix Mendelssohn’s Reformation Symphony features his trademark gossamer lightness before ending with a stately fantasy on a Martin Luther chorale. The first CSO performance of an overture by Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, Felix’s sister, reveals her distinct musical voice and command of form.
