"If you are looking to experience more of the young Mendelssohn, then this is the disc for you"
(MusicWeb Feb 2007)

Bringing together four of Mendelssohn's earliest works, this collection also showcases Marriner and the Academy in one of their earliest recordings - that of three of the composer's String Symphonies. Warmly recorded and virtuosically despatched, they are coupled with a scintillating (unnumbered) Piano Concerto by Mendelssohn, with John Ogdon as a fleet-fingered soloist.

Tracks:

Symphony No. 9 in C minor for Strings
Symphony No. 10 in B minor for Strings
Symphony No. 12 in G minor for Strings
Concerto in A minor for Piano & Strings
