Mendelssohn: Chamber Symphony op 80a mov. 4

Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy was born on this day 215 years ago. His 80th opus 'String Quartet No. 6 in F Minor' is one of Mendelssohn's greatest contributions to the chamber music repertoire. Probably it is also the most tormented work he ever composed as it sings out of his symbiotic relationship with sister Fanny Hensel, a fine composer who died at age 41. Here is an excerpt from my orchestral arrangement of this work also known as 'Requiem for Fanny'. https://youtu.be/VAQ6I4-hrzQ Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy: Chamber Symphony op  80a 'Requiem for Fanny' (String Quartet No. 6 in F Minor) IV. Finale: Allegro molto Sinfonia Toronto / Nurhan Arman, Conductor String orchestra version by Nurhan Arman. Recorded live in CBC Glenn Gould Studio on January 25, 2019.
