Download or read book Mendelssohn written by R. Larry Todd and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-10-23 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extraordinary prodigy of Mozartean abilities, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy was a distinguished composer and conductor, a legendary pianist and organist, and an accomplished painter and classicist. Lionized in his lifetime, he is best remembered today for several staples of the concert hall and for such popular music as "The Wedding March" and "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing." Now, in the first major Mendelssohn biography to appear in decades, R. Larry Todd offers a remarkably fresh account of this musical giant, based upon painstaking research in autograph manuscripts, correspondence, diaries, and paintings. Rejecting the view of the composer as a craftsman of felicitous but sentimental, saccharine works (termed by one critic "moonlight with sugar water"), Todd reexamines the composer's entire oeuvre, including many unpublished and little known works. Here are engaging analyses of Mendelssohn's distinctive masterpieces--the zestful Octet, puckish Midsummer Night's Dream, haunting Hebrides Overtures, and elegiac Violin Concerto in E minor. Todd describes how the composer excelled in understatement and nuance, in subtle, coloristic orchestrations that lent his scores an undeniable freshness and vividness. He also explores Mendelssohn's changing awareness of his religious heritage, Wagner's virulent anti-Semitic attack on Mendelssohn's music, the composer's complex relationship with his sister Fanny Hensel, herself a child prodigy and prolific composer, his avocation as a painter and draughtsman, and his remarkable, polylingual correspondence with the cultural elite of his time. Mendelssohn: A Life offers a masterful blend of biography and musical analysis. Readers will discover many new facets of the familiar but misunderstood composer and gain new perspectives on one of the most formidable musical geniuses of all time.

Download or read book Letters of Felix Mendelssohn to Ignaz and Charlotte Moscheles Classic Reprint written by Felix Moscheles and published by Forgotten 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mendelssohn It is the invariable law that there should be compensation on all sides for success and for failure. A man will have, in the few and evil days of his life, such disappreciation that only his belief In the central point of his sou lvery often carries him through to the bitter end'an to the success that cometh after death.d Such examples in history, though they remind one of the perpetual law of equipoise, still remain as evidences of a certain individual cruelty, upon the altar of which some of the finest intelligences of the world have been sacrificed. Upon that altar Mozart, to the eternal shame of the world of his own day, was placed. The same fate attended the career of Schubert. Bach himself, although he had his triumphs in organ -iofts and, let it never be forgotten, to the credit of our country, that the printed appreciation of Dr. Burney, whose fame, oddly enough, except in musical circles, has rested upon the reputation of the authoress of Evelina.
