Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy

1809–1847

A brilliant early-Romantic composer, pianist, and conductor, he helped shape 19th-century musical life while still astonishing audiences with the ease and polish of his work. Best known today for pieces like the Overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the Violin Concerto in E minor, and the "Wedding March," he also played a major role in reviving interest in Bach.
