His musical style fully developed before he was 20 drew upon a variety of influences including the complex chromatic counterpoint of Bach the formal clarity and gracefulness of Mozart and the dramatic power of Beethoven and Weber.<br/><br/>Mendelssohn's emergence into the first rank of 19th-century German composers coincided with efforts by music historiographers to develop the concept of a Classic-Romantic dialectic in 18th and 19th-century music.

Scarce.<br/><br/>Mendelssohn's "Italian" Symphony No. 4 Op. 90 was composed following the composer's visit to Italy and first performed in London on 13 May 1833. Mendelssohn revised the symphony in the following year but it remained unpublished at the time of his death. This leads to confusion surrounding the order of Mendelssohn's symphonies as both it and the "Reformation" Symphony No. 5 Op. 107 were composed and performed prior to Symphonies 2 and 3. The chronological order of Mendelssohn's symphonies is as follows:<br/><br/>- Symphony No. 1 Op. 11 1824<br/>- Symphony No. 5 Op. 107 "Reformation" 1830<br/>- Symphony No. 4 Op. 90 "Italian" 1833<br/>- Symphony No. 2 Op. 52 "Lobgesang" 1840<br/>- Symphony No. 3 Op. 56 "Scottish" 1842 <br/><br/>One of the most gifted and versatile prodigies Mendelssohn stood at the forefront of German music during the 1830s and 40s as conductor pianist organist and above all composer.
