Truly lovely! This is one of the few recordings I have heard that doesn't try to do it as fast as possible. The result is a much more intense and solid piece. Tell me, what orchestra is this and who is the conductor?
-
This is an interesting recording, though it seems too loud and too slow for my taste. The orchestra is very heavy.
-
always reminds me of Hannibal Lecter.... in my mind I can hear the wrong note... poor Benjamin Raspel
but I really love that scherzo :)
-
Scherzo isn't Prestissimo! I think this is a good tempo for the composition
-
Wonderful ! Thank you.
-
Great video! The tempo could have been faster. Even though Mendelssohn was very talented, he was a superhero in some ways. I guess Bach's ghost thanked Mendelssohn's ghost for making him known in history (*_*)

The first few seconds of this piece were used in the first season's "SCTV News" segments on that venerable comedy series; probably a spoof of "The Huntley-Brinkley Report's" use of the Scherzo from Beethoven's Ninth. In any case, I can no longer hear this opening without hearing in my head:
"I'm Floyd Robertson . . . "
"And I'm Earl Camembert . . . "
" . . . and this is the SCTV News."

THANKS!
it helped me a LOT with my project!♥

In fact, the original "tempo" written on the score would be even a bit slower!

Mendelssohn Scherzo, A Midsummer Night's Dream, flute (orchestral excerpt)by youflutetube4,768 views
it's so cool; I've heard versions played much, much faster than this that have so much intensity and emotion. And yet, even though this version is a bit slower, it still retains that bright, light feeling and all the energy of the faster recordings. That's very hard for a musician to do; cudos to this orchestra!

Mendelssoh, the master of compassion, a truly great piece of composition ...
