Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy The time predicted by one who wrote the sen tence years ago seems to have come, when every line and every word from Mendelssohn's pen would be treasured by the world. Most great composers make their appeal for recognition to a comparatively small circle of admirers, and are rarely quoted beyond the domain of their art. It is so with Mendelssohn neither in Germany, in England, nor in America. Chorley little knew what a weighty sentence he was inditing, when he penned the words, There may come a day yet, when the example of Mendelssohn's life, yet more than of his works, may be invoked in Germany. In England there was always a passionate adora tion of him as a man; the fascinating presence, the stories of his remarkable culture, his unselfish ness, his moral purity, his entirely religious and Christian character, awakening an interest in every thing pertaining to him, which found hardly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: From the German Not long after the death of Mendelssohn, Lam padins, a friend of his, a musical amateur, and evidently a man of nice tastes and of high-toned character, wrote a biography of the great com poser, which has been made the basis of all the smaller Sketches of his life, but which now appears in a literal translation from the German for the first time. It may be said of it, that it is not the best biography of Mendelssohn that could be written, but it is the best and indeed the only one that has been written, or is likely to be for some time. Doubtless, the time will come when this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters of Felix Mendelssohn to Ignaz and Charlotte Moscheles If I have abstained from giving publicity to these letters for so long a time, it is because I thought such delay was in accordance with the wishes of both writers. Many passages occur in which prominent musicians of those days are unreservedly criticised, passages which I felt as little authorized to suppress as to publish during the lifetime of those alluded to. I trust they will be none the less interesting now that time has judged between the critics and those criticised. Nor did I feel justified in omitting passages that may prove of less interest to the general public than to a smaller circle; for they truly depict the warm friendship which, in the course of years, ripened between Men delssohn and Moscheles, and they are thoroughly characteristic of the bright and genial way in which Mendelssohn would express his personal feelings. For a copy of my father's letters to Mendelssohn, I am indebted to Prof. Carl Mendelssohn, of Freiburg, the eldest son of the composer. From these I have made extracts, or embodied their substance in a com mentary, where it seemed necessary to explain what Mendelssohn had written. To give them in full I deemed undesirable, so much of similar subject-matter from the pen of my father having already been made public, notably in the Life of Moscheles, edited by my mother. This biography is chiefly compiled from diaries extending over a period of nearly sixty years, and faithfully reflecting his impressions on the mani fold incidents of his artistic career.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mendelssohn Family (1729-1847) From Letters and Journals, Vol. 1 The work I now offer to the public was originally undertaken for a very different purpose and from a very different point of view. It was intended to be a bio graphy not only of the family but for the family; I wished my children to know a little more of their fore fathers than is generally the case, especially among the middle classes. Some few friends saw this family biography, ' compiled about fifteen years ago, and expressed a wish to see it published. I have preserved its original form as much as possible, and hope that it will be read as the chronicle of a good middle-class family in Germany.

This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Mendelssohn's Oratorio Elijah I have been asked to say a few words as introduction to this volume, and I do so with pleasure. T o the mass of music-loving people Of this country, however, I believe that Mendelssohn requires no introduction. It has been the fashion in some quarters to speak Of him slightingly, nay injuriously; but this will pass, and he needs no defence - certainly not when Elijah is in question. In England the oratorio has taken its place, if not on a level with The Messiah, very near it; and what more does any work of musical art require? Fortunately every additional fact that is elicited about this great com poser testifies all the more to his insight, to the depth and warmth Of his feelings, and to the indefatigable earnestness with which he worked until he had realised the entire meaning Of his text and expressed it in music to the utmost Of his power and with all the dramatic force that it was capable of. The letters now given - many Of them for the first time - abound in instances Of this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mendelssohn Family (1729-1847), Vol. 2 The winter of 1835 passed drearily - everybody had to strive to get accustomed to the great loss. Felix persisted in a solitary, almost desperate mood, and Fanny was firmly convinced that he must begin quite a new life, and marry. She talked about it to him, and was overjoyed by his assurance that he would look about him on the Rhine next summer, which proved that he had a certain object in View. What else could have induced him to think of the Rhine especially? We shall see how successfully he sought and found.
