If youre looking for a set of Mendelssohn symphonies look no further. For your money you get wonderful performances of all the Mendelssohn symphonies plus you get the wondeful overtures, my favourites being the 'trumpet' and 'overure for wind instruments'. If youre not looking for a set of mendelssohn symphonies why not? These have to be some of the most under- rated symphonies in the repertoire. The 'Italian' is the most famous -and Abbado leads a cracking rendition here, however I prefer the superb No. 5 'Reformation'. Not forgetting No. 2 'Lobesgang (Hymm of praise) - a chilled version of Beethoven's Choral. I could go on - but money on this set will not be wasted.

As other reviewers have said, these symphonies are vastly underrated - the collection here is a must for classical lovers. The symphonies themselves are very different in feel, structure and mood, but are all excellent. The overtures too are very fine and again illustrate the variety and subtlety of Mendelssohn's orchestral composition.
Abbado and the London Phil are in great form, the sound and production are superb - never too near to be overbearing, but very clear and crisp. Buy it.

Look no further than this for an excellent set of Mendelssohn Symphonies and Overtures, superbly recorded and peformed. Always rather underestimated, in my opinion, compared to Beethoven and Schubert. Shame though, that the text for the "Hymn of Praise" (Symphony Nr 2)is not included in the notes..
