And Psalm 42, also for soloists, choir and orchestra, which Mendelssohn composed during one of his travels to Switzerland. The text "As the deer cries out" is transformed musically into a melancholic yet gripping composition. Rightfully, this work is considered one of Mendelssohn's most famous. Franziskus Choir and project singers, Sophia Seemann and Giulia Ferraldeschi soprano, Fabio de Giacomi tenor, Camerata Cantabile orchestra, conducted by Felix Ketterer
