Work: Trumpet Overture, Op.101

What better start to a near capacity crowd concert than Mendelssohn's rousing Overture in C Major, Op101. It contains everything required to suggest a promising evening's music: pace, sparkling orchestration, energising counterpoint, dramatic dynamics and panache.

Autour du soliste David Guerrier et du jeune chef James Salomon Kahane, l'Orchestre Symphonique de Mulhouse fait preuve de brio dans un programme qui mettait en avant ses vents.
