  • This is gorgeous! Love it.

  • Who's the one asshole who disliked??

    Grrrr!

  • He was 17.

  • A splendid lively performance.

  • Playing this in orchestra. Trombone section has 250 measures of rest. Like a boss.

  • true talent which is ignored nowadays, such a shame

  • well there goes one dislike......is it mandatory to always have a troll even just one? sigh

  • first time I've seen zero dislikes on youtube

  • Probably the best recording/interpretation on YouTube. Thanks for sharing!

  • @Theolovesyou and sadly thats why people like you will never be enlightened by the many great composers ....maybe your young and nieve and someday will come to appreciate it and more classical stuff

  • I'm playing this in chamber orchestra... I play viola, so the part isn't nearly as hard as the violins', but I'm still amazed how fast this orchestra can perform this piece. We're aiming for 15 minutes or less, and this is at 12... the piece and orchestra are amazing.

  • Listening to this for my music appreciation class. Am amazed that it was written when Mendelssohn was just seventeen years old. It seems to be quite an intricate piece!

  • Magnificent piece! Superb orchestration! Bravo!

  • Mendelssohn composed this when he was 17.

  • Lovely

  • my drama class is doing A midsummers night dream for our major production at school!

  • My ballet studio is doing a dance piece to this beautiful song for our spring recital!

    I really wanted to listen to it, so here I am!

    I absolutly love all the parts to the music!

  • @InuMermaid82 SOOOO is mine. :)

  • Bravo.

    why so few views.?

  • @happyFF15

    Lot of competition, I guess. But any complete version of the overture should be outrageously popular. Not that I expect it to be, only that it deserves to be.

    Mendelssohn is one of my two most favorite composers (Vivaldi's the other). Neither one of them has created a work that I've heard and didn't like. IMHO, this piece is one of his most expressive and beautiful.

  • @happyFF15 They're too busy listening to Rebecca Black singing "Friday."
