About This Song
About "Six Songs, Op. 34 : Mendelssohn: Six Songs, Op. 34: II. Auf den Flügeln des Gesanges, MWV K86" by Daniel Hope
Mendelssohn's 'On Wings of Song' becomes a wordless flight. Hope's violin soars with tender, airborne phrasing, the piano (or orchestra) a gentle updraft. It's pure Romantic longing—a soul lifted by melody, yet tethered to a quiet, human ache.
