Fanny Hensel (1805-1847) was an extraordinary musician and astute observer of European culture. Previously she was known mainly as the granddaughter of philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and the sister of composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, yet Hensel is now recognized as the leading woman composer of the nineteenth century. She produced well over four hundred compositions and excelled in short, lyrical piano pieces and songs of epigrammatic intensity, but the expressive range of her art also accommodated challenging virtuoso piano and chamber works, orchestral music, and cantatas written in imitation of J.S. Bach. Her gender and position in society restricted her from opportunities afforded her brother, however, who himself quickly rose to an international career of the first rank. Hensel's own sphere of influence revolved around her Berlin residence, where she directed concerts that attracted such celebrities as Franz Liszt, Clara Schumann, Clara Novello, and her brother Felix. In this semi-public space, shared with exclusive audiences drawn from the elite of Berlin society, Hensel found her own voice as pianist, conductor and composer. For much of her life, she composed for her own pleasure, and her brother ranked her songs among the very best examples of the genre. Felix silently incorporated several of the songs into his own early publications, while a few other songs were published anonymously. Hensel began releasing her works under her own name in 1847, only to die of a stroke as the first reviews of her music began to appear. Tragically, the vast majority of her music was forgotten for a century and a half before its recent rediscovery. Renowned Mendelssohn scholar R. Larry Todd now offers a compelling, full account of Hensel's life and music, her extraordinary relationship with her brother, her position in one of Berlin's most eminent families, and her courageous struggle to define her own public voice as a composer [Publisher description].

Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (1805-47), pianist and composer, maintained a prolific and witty correspondence with her younger brother Felix over the course of approximately 25 years, which is here presented in English translation, with the original German for reference. As the leader of a vibrant salon, Hensel deploys her critical prowess to describe Berlin musical life, including its conservative institutions and personalities, as well as to evaluate Felix's works-in-progress in detail. We also learn about Hensel's own compositions, her attitudes toward herself as a composer, and the significance of Felix's views on the formation of those attitudes. Hensel's letters provide a fascinating glimpse into the problems and challenges facing gifted women musicians in the nineteenth century. The 150 letters are drawn from the Green Books collection of letters addressed to Felix Mendelssohn, in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Reviews-These letters reveal Fanny Mendelssohn to be a thoroughly fascinating individual, one whose special relationship to Felix would be enough to guarantee the interest of the documents. But we soon become engrossed with Fanny herself, as composer, as critic, as musical commentator and figure in the musical life of Berlin. To watch this world through her eyes is to watch it come alive through the wisdom, wit, and grace of a remarkable person. Citron has a gift for rendering the substance and spirit of these letters into charming and effective English prose that preserves something of the formality of nineteenth-century discourse together with the passion and spirit of Fanny Mendelssohn. Philip Gossett ...reading this volume is a pleasure, not just a musicological duty. Clifford Bartlettthe volume contains penetrating and highly scholarly critical commentaries and is a valuable addition to mendelssohniana. J.R. Belanger, Choice, April 1988

This project pursues an investigation into the piano works of Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel and Clara Wieck-Schumann, whose music had been largely forgotten until its revival as part of a recent renewal of interest in women composers. While the musical and individual styles of these two composers vary considerably, their music can still be usefully compared within the broad context of nineteenth-century Romanticism. The detailed study of their piano works poses questions relating to issues of performance practice, an area that has still not been widely explored in the literature surrounding their music. The aim of this project will therefore be to identify and address such issues from the perspective of the performer. The research carried out in this project is performance based. Performance, being a significant component of the research, functions as a tool and serves as an outcome of the project. The submission is presented in two parts. Part A consists of three CDs and contains recorded performances of selected piano works by Mendelssohn-Hensel and Wieck-Schumann. The repertoire included in the CDs covers three different genres by both composers; namely, piano sonatas, trios and miniatures. Part B is an exegesis. The commentary contained in this section combines theoretical, historical and practical perspectives that document the processes of research and performance undertaken as part of the project. Existing research on the repertoire, while gathering momentum, has centred largely on compositional techniques or gender-related studies. Aspects of performance have been substantially neglected. The present study draws heavily on existing scholarship, informed by the intimate experience of the music that comes from performing it. It addresses insights generated through the process of rehearsing and performing Mendelssohn-Hensel's and Wieck-Schumann's piano works, and examines the musical characteristics and compositional styles of the two composers. The similarities and differences between their works within each genre are identified and assessed based on key musical elements such as form, tonality, texture, notation, rhythm, dynamics, articulation, tempo, and pedalling. Also included is a discussion of the interpretation of the scores and the stylistic issues encountered while studying and performing these works. The primary outcomes of this research reside in the recordings and exegesis and differ fundamentally from the purely musicological perspectives that characterise most of the previous work devoted to Mendelssohn-Hensel and Wieck-Schumann. The project represents the first study to investigate the two composers and three of their most characteristic genres by combining the perspectives of performer and researcher, making it a distinctive contribution to the comparatively small but steadily growing body of research into these two composers. It is hoped that this project will serve as a guide and reference for pianists wishing to study the piano works of the two composers, stimulate publishers to commission complete editions of the composers' music, and to provide pointers towards possible areas of further investigation.
