Description
A masterful arrangement of the final movement (Allegro vivacissimo) of Felix Mendelssohn's beloved Symphony No. 3, commonly known as the "Scottish" Symphony. Following a walking tour of Scotland in 1829, Mendelssohn was inspired to compose this symphony.

I think Ihave found there the beginning of my 'Scottish' Symphony."
