Mendelssohn, Goethe, and the Walpurgis Night is a book about tolerance and acceptance in the face of cultural, political, and religious strife. Its point of departure is the Walpurgis Night. The Night, also known as Beltane or May Eve, was supposedly an annual witches' Sabbath that centered around the Brocken, the highest peak of the Harz Mountains. After exploring how a notoriously pagan celebration came to be named after the Christian missionary St. Walpurgis (ca. 710-79), John Michael Cooper discusses the Night's treatments in several closely interwoven works by Goethe and Mendelssohn. His book situates those works in their immediate personal and professional contexts, as well as among treatments by a wide array of other artists, philosophers, and political thinkers, including Voltaire, Lessing, Shelley, Heine, Delacroix, and Berlioz. In an age of decisive political and religious conflict, Walpurgis Night became a heathen muse: a source of inspiration that was neither specifically Christian, nor Jewish, nor Muslim. And Mendelssohn's and Goethe's engagements with it offer new insights into its role in European cultural history, as well as into issues of political, religious, and social identity -- and the relations between cultural groups -- in today's world. John Michael Cooper (Southwestern University) is the author of Mendelssohn's "Italian" Symphony (Oxford University Press).

N49P Piano-vocal score (2008) xiv + 118 pp. $55.00 The first version of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's secular cantata Die erste Walpurgisnacht (The First Walpurgis Night) was composed during the last years of the composer's decade-long friendship with the work's poet, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. It was premiered less than a year after Goethe's death, but despite his enthusiasm for the work Mendelssohn was unable to return to it as a publication project for several years. He did finally revise and publish it in 1842-44, and in that guise it won considerable acclaim, but by then Mendelssohn's professional standing had changed significantly, and so had the work itself. This edition represents the first publication of the young and unestablished Mendelssohn's early setting af Goethe's provocative ballad concerning the eighth-century conflict between paganism and Christianity in Germany. The work is masterful in its own right, and the similarities and differences between it and the later version offer telling insights into Mendelssohn's compositional development. The piano-vocal score incorporates Mendelssohn's own manuscript of a four-hand arrangement of the orchestral introduction.

Exploring many aspects of Felix Mendelssohn's multi-faceted career as musician and how it intersects with his work as composer, contributors discuss practical issues of music making such as performance space, instruments, tempo markings, dynamics, phrasings, articulations, fingerings, and instrument techniques. They present the conceptual and ideological underpinnings of Mendelssohn's approach to performance, interpretation, and composing through the contextualization of specific performance events and through the theoretic actualization of performances of specific works. Contributors rely on manuscripts, marked or edited scores, and performance parts to convey a deeper understanding of musical expression in 19th-century Germany. This study of Mendelssohn's work as conductor, pianist, organist, violist, accompanist, music director, and editor of old and new music offers valuable perspectives on 19th-century performance practice issues.
