In May, 2016 I had the honor to meet Jane Goodall through Alberto Sampablo and Federico Bogdanowicz of the Goodall Institute in Barcelona. I have long admired Jane. She is one of the most extraordinary people I have ever met. She has always been compared to the Doctor and organist, Albert Schweitzer who was also known for his work on the African continent. During a conversation in Girona, where Jane had led a large event, we were able to speak freely about varied aspects of life but especially about the need to improve our planet and additionally, about music. I was tremendously impressed by her—her expressions, gestures and the comforting spirit that she emanates.
During our conversation, the violin Concerto by Mendelssohn came up as one of Jane’s favorite works. The work is one which has also been close to me from the first moment that I heard it many years ago. I wanted to write a kind of “souvenir” for Jane of our meeting by evoking the Mendelssohn Concerto. I chose the first movement, «Allegro molto appassionato», in which the most sublime themes of the Concerto are found and I adapted them for the cello with a reserved atmosphere and an elegiac character.
