Product Description
Granddaughter of the philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and sister of the composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Fanny Hensel (1805-1847) was an extraordinary musician who left well over four hundred compositions, most of which fell into oblivion until their rediscovery late in the twentieth century.In Fanny Hensel: The Other Mendelssohn, R. Larry Todd offers a compelling, authoritative account of Hensel's life and music, and her struggle to emerge as a publicly recognized composer. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel:It's about time
I've been a fan of R. Larry Todd's biographic work on the Mendelssohns for quite a while, and this new bio of Felix Mendelssohn's unjustly overlooked sister was marvelous.She was easily as talented as her famous younger brother, and was only less known because she was an upper-class woman, for whom a career as a composer/ conductor/performer wouldn't do.This bio would be excellent for anyone interested in women's studies or music history.

Highly recommended. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Teaching Tool!
This book is special because it is one of the few books on classical, women composers aimed at middle school students.It explains in clear prose Fanny Mendelssohn's life and why she was not as famous as her brother, even though she was probably just as talented.Kamen examines the social structures that made it nearly impossible for women to perform and publish music without being looked at as plebeian.Although Kamen is slightly simplistic in her blaming of Fanny's brother, father and husband for her lack of fame, the book is aimed at middle school where a more complete, and therefor complex view of the situation might be too sophisticated for the average student to grasp.This book would be perfect for a middle school student interested in music to read, a music class to read as part of their study of the classical period, or any class that wishes to study the social status of women in the nineteenth century. ...

Product Description
When Fanny Hensel, sister of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, and her family returned from their journey to Italy in 1839/40 she and her husband compiled a kind of album. Fanny wrote down her compositions on colored paper, her husband drew vignettes that document the place where the piece of music had been composed. Originally the album was for private use only, now its facsimile provides us with a vivid memory of romantic Italian journeys in the 18th century. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel Piano Music
The pieces in the book were fine pieces, and discovering the style of Mendelssohn's sister was interesting.The annoyance in this book was that the chords were improperly marked.This means that the printed page showed an arpeggio with accidentals, but frequently the accidental would be marked on only ONE of the two occurences of that note in the arpeggio!I had problems throughout the entire book locating missing accidentals in chords that involved more than one octave!Then I kept having to add the accidentals!

4-0 out of 5 stars Much needed facsimiles
A nice selection of some of Fanny Hensel's most attractive pieces in facsimile prints.
Several of these have been recorded, as well, already. ... Read more
