Antipodes–German Romantics II
With the generous support of the German Embassy in Athens
Capturing Scotland's grey and melancholic landscape, Mendelssohn's celebrated Third Symphony is stylistically worlds apart from the robust and high-flown overture from Wagner's Master Singers of Nuremberg. The distinguished clarinet soloist and teacher, Johannes Gmeinder, performs Weber's highly demanding, classically pellucid Second Concerto. The Athens State Orchestra is conducted by an eminent German conductor, Golo Berg.
