Summary of This Sheet Music

This collection highlights Mendelssohn's romantic world through a panorama of emblematic pieces, ranging from intimate pages to major themes drawn from his orchestral and choral works. It notably includes "Songs Without Words" (such as "Spring Song," "Sweet Remembrance," or "Venetian Boat-Song"), excerpts from the incidental music of A Midsummer Night's Dream (including the very famous "Wedding March"), as well as solo piano adaptations of movements taken from symphonies, concertos, sonatas, and overtures ("The Italian," "The Scottish," "The Hebrides").

The value of this edition also lies in its audio CD : each piece is accompanied by a reference performance, useful for understanding phrasing, balance, articulation, and tempo choices. It is a valuable tool for developing your own sound, refining musicality, and gaining independence during practice at home. Thanks to the variety of atmospheres (songs, marches, nocturnes, character pieces), this sheet music fits well both into a study routine and in preparation for a concert or audition program.
