Sinfonia No. 5: String Symphony in B flat by Lucas Drew String Orchestra - Sheet Music

By Lucas Drew

This is the fifth among thirteen string symphonies written between 1821 and 1823, when Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) was twelve to fourteen years old. Like the other twelve, it was written as a tribute to early Classical symphonies by composers such as Haydn, J.C. Bach, C.P.E. Bach, and Mozart, a feature much more obvious in the first six as they were more imitative. The second grouping, starting with Sinfonia No. 7, show more of the composer's emerging personal style. Mendelssohn composed most of the thirteen works in three movements, and his fifth string symphony, completed only ten days after the fourth, is no exception. The set includes a string count of 8-8-5-5-5.
