Music by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy

With his magnificent original sound orchestra Le Concert des Nations, Jordi Savall has made a significant contribution to shedding new light on the classical and romantic repertoire.


Known for his meticulousness, the visionary conductor is dedicating himself to a pure Mendelssohn program at the Musikfest Berlin with experienced members of the Le Concert des Nations orchestra and participants from an orchestra academy he founded. In addition to the Scottish and Italian symphonies, Mendelssohn Bartholdy's Hebrides Overture will also be performed.
