After a brief intermission, the symphony will return to perform works inspired by Italy. Tchaikovsky<\/strong>‘s Italian Capriccio<\/em><\/strong> was inspired by a carnival in Rome. The final piece will be Medelssohn<\/strong>‘s Symphony #4, Italian<\/em><\/strong>, about which he wrote in a letter to his sister, “The\u00a0Italian<\/em>\u00a0symphony is making great progress. It will be the jolliest piece I have ever done, especially the last movement. I have not found anything for the slow movement yet, and I think that I will save that for Naples.<\/em>“<\/span><\/div>\n
