Description:

The "Classical Masters" series. This album features Mendelssohn's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" in which Otto Klemperer's individuality flourishes. As with his interpretations of other composers' works, Klemperer's performance of Mendelssohn's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" is truly unique and romantic. The performance, based on a richly structured worldview, gives the impression that even the quality of the music itself is elevated.
