Mendelssohn was good in E major---And you can tell this movement was definitely inspired by Beethovens OP 109 1st mvt.

The slow movement is beautifully and insightfully played by Magaloff. More should comment on the pianist's fine performance! He lets his inner musical sense dictate how he interprets, even if contrary to score markings. The opening of the Andante recalls one of Henselt's Etudes, op. 2. Just as divas often tire of performing music which plumbs the emotional depths and become more attune to the celebratory and easeful flowing aspects, Mendelssohn's disposition led him early in that direction.

@mrbrianmccarthy I agree with what you wrote...And this is the truth! Liszt's mature compositions were composed in the second half of the XIXth century. The beautiful Liebestraüme date from 1850 and it is obvious L. was influenced by some of M.'s songs without words. Actually Liszt wrote the symphonic poems, the faust symphony, also from 1850's, which are masterpieces, and are the execptions to what I said in my previous comments...!
