Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Claudio Abbado Staffa London Symphony Orchestra 1829 1830 1832 1834
Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Overture "The Hebrides (Fingal's Cave)", Op. 26, MWV P 7 (with Score) Composed: 1830, revised 1832 Conductor: Claudio Abbado Orchestra: London Symphony Orchestra Felix Mendelssohn's concert overture The Hebrides (Die Hebriden) was composed in 1830, revised in 1832, and published the next year as his Op. 26. Some consider it an early tone poem. It was inspired by one of Mendelssohn's trips to the British Isles, specifically an 1829 excursion to the Scottish island of Staffa, with its basalt sea cave known as Fingal's Cave. It was reported that the composer immediately jotted down the opening theme for his composition after seeing the island. He at first called the work To the Lonely Island or Zur einsamen Insel, but then settled on the present title. However, in 1834, the year after the first publication, Breitkopf & Härtel issued an edition with the name Fingalshöhle (Fingal's Cave) and this title stuck, causing some confusion. Being a concert overture, The Hebrides does not precede a play or opera, but is instead a standalone composition in a form common for the Romantic period. Dedicated to King Frederick William IV of Prussia, then Crown Prince of Prussia, the B minor work became part of the standard orchestral repertoire and retains this position to the present day. The music, though labelled as an overture, is intended to stand as a complete work. Although programme music, it does not tell a specific story and is not "about" anything; instead, the piece depicts a mood and "sets a scene", making it an early example of such musical tone poems. The overture consists of two primary themes; the opening notes of the overture state the theme Mendelssohn wrote while visiting the cave, and is played initially by the violas, cellos, and bassoons. This lyrical theme, suggestive of the power and stunning beauty of the cave, is intended to develop feelings of loneliness and solitude. The second theme, meanwhile, depicts movement at sea and "rolling waves".

Felix Mendelssohn Staffa Saust Mendelssohn On Mull Festival 1685 1788 1857 2009
Members of ensemble 1685 sing Mendelssohn's partsong "Abschied vom Walde" (opus 59, number 3) inside Fingal's Cave on the island of Staffa marking the composer's 200th anniversary year during the 2009 Mendelssohn On Mull Festival. Text: O Täler weit, o Höhen, o schöner grüner Wald, du meiner Lust und Wehen andächtger Aufenthalt! Da draussen, stets betrogen, saust die geschäftge Welt, schlag noch einmal die Bogen um mich, du grünes Zelt. Bald werd'ich dich verlassen, fremd in die Fremde gehn, auf bunt bewegten Gassen des Lebens Schauspiel stehn. Und mitten in dem Leben wird deines Ernst's Gewalt, mich Einsamen erheben, so wird mein Herz nicht alt. Joseph von Eichendorff +••.••(...))
