As I have orchestrated the Scherzo from Mendelssohn's op. 81.2 perhaps for my realisation of Mendelssohn's 6th symphony now I orchestrated also the Fugato from string quartett movement op. 81.3 part II. This is, I think, the most furious and wildest piece Mendelssohn ever has written! Could this be the Finale of a symphony? At the end I added the main theme of the 1st mov. of the 6th symphony (I call it the "morning theme") in a solemn way to close in a sense a circle for the symphony. What do you think? Does it fit?
