In the week of National Remembrance, we play music by Mendelssohn - forbidden repertoire during the years of occupation. The elf-like lightness of his Overture to Midsummer Night's Dream and the noble profundity of his Fifth Symphony, which builds on Bach and points ahead to Bruckner, Wagner and Mahler: let us not forget how fortunate we are to be able to enjoy it now in freedom.

English

In de week van de Nationale Herdenking spelen we muziek van Mendelssohn – verboden repertoire tijdens de bezettingsjaren. De elf-achtige lichtheid van zijn Midzomernachtsdroom-ouverture en de nobele diepgang van zijn Vijfde symfonie, die voortbouwt op Bach en vooruitwijst naar Bruckner, Wagner en Mahler: laten we niet vergeten hoe gelukkig we zijn dat we daarvan nu in vrijheid kunnen genieten.
