Orchestra of the 18th Century and Roel Dieltiens (cello) - String orchestra - Mendelssohn

Symfonie voor strijkers nr. 1 in C
Orkest van de 18e Eeuw
  • I. Allegro
  • II. Andante
  • III. Allegro
In his time Mendelssohn was called the 'Mozart of the nineteenth century'. Like Mozart, Mendelssohn was a child prodigy and started composing at a young age. For barely twelve years he wrote his first of twelve symphonies for strings
Celloconcert in Bes, Wq 171
Orkest van de 18e Eeuw Roel Dieltiens (cello)
  • I. Allegretto
  • II. Adagio
  • III. Allegro assai
Much of what makes Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach's music unique can be heard in this Cello Concerto in Bes. With the gallant 'Allegretto' Carl Philipp Emanuel gives his business card to the new generation of composers after Johann Sebastian Bach. In the sensitive 'Adagio' Bach makes himself heard from his most profound side. Finally, the almost manic 'Allegro assai' is full of energetic zest for life

Symfonie voor strijkers nr. 10 in b
Orkest van de 18e Eeuw
  • I. Adagio –
  • II. Allegro
The beginning of Mendelssohn's Tenth Symphony for strings could just have run away from a piece by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Thanks to his great-aunt Sara Levy, the young Felix probably knew a lot of music by this Bach. Yet in his Tenth Symphony, Mendelssohn continues to leave the path of his predecessors on his way to a style of his own. With a bit of goodwill, this symphony already contains references to the famous Octet, op. 20 that Mendelssohn would compose two years later.
Celloconcert in A, Wq 172
Orkest van de 18e Eeuw Roel Dieltiens (cello)
  • I. Allegro
  • II. Largo con sordini, mesto
  • III. Allegro assai
Does Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach have a classic hit to his name? Yes, it is! Anyone who has seen the National Dictation on TV will immediately recognise the 'Allegro assai' of this cello concert as the tune of this programme
