Sinfonia No. 2: String Symphony in D
Composers:- Mendelssohn, Felix
- Wolff, Hellmuth Christian
- Drew, Lucas
Duration: 11
Description:
This is the second among thirteen string symphonies written between 1821 and 1823, when Mendelssohn was twelve to fourteen years old. Like the other twelve, it was written as a tribute to early Classical symphonies by composers such as Haydn, J.C. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, and Mozart, a feature much more obvious in the first six as they were more imitative. The second grouping, starting with Sinfonia No. 7, show more of the composer’s emerging personal style. Mendelssohn composed most of the thirteen works in three movements, and his second string symphony is no exception. String count of 8-8-5-5-5 in set.
