  • Fanny Mendelssohn
    The Akron Symphony Meet the Composer - Fanny Mendelssohn Born: November 14, 1805 Died: May 14, 1847 Fanny Mendelssohn was a German pianist and composer and the older sister of the well-known composer, Felix Mendelssohn. The two siblings were very close. She received a quality musical education, first taking piano les- sons from her mother and later studying piano and composition with other teachers. Due to social conventions of the time re- garding the roles of women, some of her compositions were published under her brother’s name. Fanny’s works were often played alongside those of her brother on the family’s Sunday concert series. In 1829, Fanny married Wilhelm Hensel. Her husband was sup- portive and encouraging of her musical work. Before her death Fanny Mendelssohn she composed more than 460 pieces of music, mostly songs and piano pieces. In 1846, a collection of her songs was published. Since the 1980s her works have become better known through performances and recordings. In May 2018, the Fanny and Felix Mendelssohn Museum was opened in Hamburg, Germany. The Piano The piano was invented by Bartolomeo Cristofori in Italy around 1700. There were several innovations to the instrument during the 1800s. These include a cast iron frame and the use of aliquot strings (unstruck strings that reinforce the tone). These innovations gave the instrument a more powerful sound. During this time the family piano played a similar role to that of the radio in the 19th century. The family would frequently gather around the instrument for an enjoyable musical evening. Timeline 1805 - Fanny Mendelssohn is born in Hamburg, Germany 1807 – Lord Nelson defeats the combined French and Spanish fleets in the Battle of Trafalgar 1809 – Mary Kies becomes the first woman in the U.S.

  • Mendelssohn's Trio Opus 49: a Study of the Composer's Change of Mind
    Ron Regev Mendelssohn's Trio opus 49: A Study of the Composer's Change of Mind Volume I: Essay Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Musical Arts degree May 2005 The Juilliard School © 2004 by Ron Regev All Rights Reserved Abstract Felix Mendelssohn's Piano Trio in D minor, opus 49, is one of the most prominent works of the mainstream chamber music repertoire. Completed in the spring of 1840, it became almost immediately a work celebrated by professional musicians and amateurs alike. In the summer of 1839 Mendelssohn completed a score of the entire piece, which was never published. This draft version is extant and housed in the Deutsche Staatsbibliothek in Berlin as part of the volume known as Mus.Ms.Autogr. Mendelssohn 31. The main purpose of this document is to gain insight into Mendelssohn’s compositional thought through a comparative analysis of the two complete versions of the D minor Trio: the draft of July 1839 and the final published version of April 1840. The first part of the document reviews the history of the Trio’s composition; the second part attempts to trace some of the reasons that prompted Mendelssohn to revise the piece; and the third part derives practical interpretative conclusions from the previous discussion. To facilitate the study of the draft version, the document includes a facsimile of the draft’s manuscript, a critical performance edition complete with parts, and a CD recording of both versions of the Trio. Ron Regev has won numerous awards and prizes in competitions such as the Tenth Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition, the American Scholarship Association Piano Competition in Cincinnati, the Bruce Hungerford Award in New York, the First Tbilisi Piano Competition in Georgia, the Israeli Broadcast Association Young Artist Competition, and the Arianne Katz Piano Competition in Tel Aviv.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Mendelssohn the Prodigy April 28 – May 1, 2019
    PROGRAM NOTES Mendelssohn the Prodigy April 28 – May 1, 2019 St. Luke’s Chamber Ensemble At A Glance “As far as mere technical execution goes, musical prodigies are probably not so rare any more, but what this young fellow can improvise and play at sight borders on the miraculous,” wrote Johann Wolfgang von Goethe about Felix Mendelssohn in November 1821, after hearing Mendelssohn perform his Piano Quartet in D Minor. Mendelssohn was three months shy of his thirteenth birthday, but he was already being proclaimed Mozart’s successor for his prodigious talents as a violinist, pianist, and composer. “Prodigy” often connotes a sense of phenomenon, as if the early blossoming of talent is predestined by divine decree or mere chance. Mendelssohn displayed his unusual musical gifts early, but they were expertly cultivated by his parents. By the time he was a pre-teen, Mendelssohn had been studying piano, violin, and composition for several years, had studied the music of J.S. Bach extensively, and was devoted to the works of Ovid, Cicero, and Shakespeare. If Mendelssohn was indeed born with an innate musicality, it was the fortunate circumstances of his birth (right time, right place, right parents) that catapulted him into the exclusive circle of child prodigies. Mendelssohn’s earliest compositions date from 1819, when he was ten years old. Within four years, he would compose four Singspiels, twelve string symphonies, piano trios and quartets, a violin sonata, and various chamber and vocal works. Many of these pieces were first performed in the Mendelssohn home, or in private residences in Berlin.

  • Prolongational Closure in the Lieder of Fanny Hensel *
    Prolongational Closure in the Lieder of Fanny Hensel * Stephen Rodgers and Tyler Osborne NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hps://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.20.26.3/mto.20.26.3.rodgers.php KEYWORDS: cadence, closure, prolongational closure, Fanny Hensel, Lieder, text-music relations, William Caplin ABSTRACT: In this article we explore Fanny Hensel’s songs that end without cadences but instead with what William Caplin (2018) calls “prolongational closure.” These songs, most of which come from the 1820s, are some of the earliest examples of piece-ending prolongational closure in the repertoire and thus offer important models for understanding how the technique was deployed by later composers. We propose three types of prolongational closure, drawn from a study of Hensel’s ˆ ˆ works—5–1 fill, dominant substitution, and early pedal—and suggest that Hensel’s fascination with non-cadential endings offers yet more evidence that she was one of the most inventive composers in the first half of the nineteenth century. DOI: 10.30535/mto.26.3.0 Received June 2019 Volume 26, Number 3, September 2020 Copyright © 2020 Society for Music Theory The rhetoric of nineteenth-century music in particular shows that the strategy by which a composer takes leave of his audience is of fundamental importance to the work’s total effect. (Agawu 1987, 2) The weakening of closure in Romantic music is associated with the wistful yearning for transcendence, the hope that what appears to be fragmentary in the material world will turn out to be whole in the world of the spirit.
