This wonderful piece gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything; It is the essence of order and lends to all that is good, just, and beautiful.
Superb performance helped by the wonderful acoutics! FM is not 1 of my favourite composers, but hearing this has made me seriously rethink. This performance so brilliantly captures the sprightly sunny southern spirit FM wants to portray after the sombre cold northern mists of the previous "Scottish" Symphony..The lightness of the opening horns says it all. This is M at his best, and so brilliantly interpreted, without dragging in tempo, often gulity of many conductors in performanng this work.
I love this performance of Mendelssohn's "Italian." It comes close or is similar to Georg Solti's direction whose video is nowhere to be found on YouTube now.
Best version... tnx!

This is one of my favorite classical pieces.
I was introduced to it through the film Breaking Away which uses this music in a great blend of audio and visual.
I am hardly waiting for it to arrive after ordering it.
Thank you for uploading this to quench my thirst for this awesome music.

A brilliant crowd pleaser.
If this was a Hitchcock movie, the assassin would be targeting the V.I.P. in the audience at 9:09.
