Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony + Yoonshin Song | Houston Symphony

Travel kindles creativity and self-discovery, and when composer Felix Mendelssohn toured Scotland at the age of 20, his experiences inspired a shining jewel of a memento in the joyful and invigorating Scottish Symphony. One of the great concertos of the 20th century, Bartók’s Violin Concerto No. 2 dances with the irresistible vitality and verve of Hungarian folk music, and spotlights the incredible talents of Concertmaster Yoonshin Song.
