Haydn Symphony no.101 'Clock'


Gershwin Lullaby


Wagner arr. Mottl 'Träume, arr. for

solo violin and orchestra (from Wesendonck Lieder)

 

Mendelssohn Symphony no. 4 'Italian'

 

directed by Paul Barritt

From Haydn's Clock Symphony first performed to a rapturous London audience in 1794, we stow away to a Persia stylised by French composer André Caplet in 1901. Moments later, it's jazz-crazed New York City after midnight, where muted strings serenade us with a Lullaby only George Gershwin could have written.

Paul Barritt stays in contemplative mood after the interval with Wagner's own arrangement of 'Träume', later developed in 'Tristan & Isolde'. Zooming back to Blighty 39 years after our journey began, we're just in time to imagine ourselves at the premiere of Felix Mendelssohn's ebullient Italian Symphony.
