Description:

This is the final installment of the Mendelssohn series by Tatsunori Numajiri & the Century Orchestra of Japan, which has received high acclaim for both its performances and recordings. No. 5 "Reformation" was recorded live in 2014, and No. 1 was recorded in 2015 as a session recording. The superb ensemble, which is played with solid technique, is led by Numajiri's baton and portrays Mendelssohn's music in all its splendor. The deep sound of the string section is colored by the brilliantly resonant wind instruments in this beautiful and magnificent performance.
