As Mendelssohn died before starting his first mature opera, The Tempest, we will never really know what we missed - but his many concert overtures give us an inkling.

The Water Spirit, Melusine, is evoked in suitably mellifluous music. Paul Lewis playing Mozart is always a not-to-be-missed pleasure; and popular guest conductor Andrew Manze closes with Schubert’s rather jolly ‘Tragic’ Symphony.
