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.
