But tell us about this first piece you brought for us.

It's the Overture to a Midsummer Night's Dream by Mendelssohn.

It's called Incidental Music.

The idea being here at the very young age of 17, Mendelssohn wrote this piece.

He came from a pretty academic family.

And Shakespeare was a part of their sort of daily life.

They read plays together as a family.

Let's get back to the concert and tell us about this next piece of music we're going to hear.
