Well-known Classical Composer Felix Mendelssohn wrote both of these pieces: Symphony No. 4 in A (known popularly as “Italian”) and Symphony No. 5 in D Major (known popularly as “Reformation”). “Italian” is considered to be Mendelssohn’s most popular symphony while “Reformation” was considered by the composer as a “complete misfit”. Together, both pieces are conducted by the impressive Charles Munch and performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, who gives both life and reason to these important works. XRCD24 brings them all together with the sound quality that cannot be matched by any other Audiophile format. Listen and Compare.
