Performance Notes
There are two fast, and one slow choruses in this set, all in typical Mendelssohn style. The harmonies are simple, and the rhythm as expected in the respective time signatures. The only difficulty is the quick tempo of the outer choruses in combination with a slightly high first part, which puts these arrangements beyond the reach of most beginner’s ensembles.
