Felix Mendelssohn was a German composer, pianist and conductor of the early Romantic period. He was quickly recognized as a child prodigy, and was perceived by many as 'the greatest musical genius since Mozart'. His musical style draws upon diverse influences, particularly the complex chromatic counterpoint of Bach, the clarity and sophistication of Mozart and the drama and power of Beethoven. The Grammy Award-winning Emerson String Quartet (Festival Napa Valley 2011) recorded all six of Mendelssohn's string quartets, including this work which was dedicated to the Crown Prince of Sweden in 1838.

The musical complexity and technical virtuosity of Bach's compositions for the solo violin are expertly displayed in this performance by Midori (Festival Napa Valley 2015).
