Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy as letter-writer: at the heart of 19th century European cultureAs one of the most important letter-writers of the 19th century, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy maintained an extensive correspondence. With great style and eloquence he wrote letters to friends and family, letters from his travels and he also wrote to leading composers, musicians, artists as well as publishers. He corresponded with famous contemporaries such as Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner as well as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Carl Friedrich Zelter and Alexander von Humboldt. The correspondence begins in 1816 and ends in 1847 with the composer’s death. These letters are invaluable documents shedding light not only on the genesis, publication and revision of his musical works, but also on a period when relations between Christians and Jews still had a chance to become harmonious, as Moses Mendelssohn, the imminent scholar and grandfather of the composer had advocated.This edition will therefore be of great interest far beyond the circles of musicologists and music specialists. It will appeal to those who are interested in the history of culture and ideas and to those who perceive Mendelssohn and his family as representatives of a unique, diverse cultural epoch. The complete correspondence shows that Mendelssohn not only went on to become one of the leading figures of German musical culture in the 1840s, but that he also maintained a network of musical contacts throughout Europe.The edition of the complete lettersThis scholarly-critical complete edition comprises 5,855 letters by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. Previously only a small part of his correspondence had been published and made accessible to the public. The complete edition is based on Mendelssohn letters which have been compiled over decades by Rudolf Elvers as well as on international research carried out by an academic workgroup in Leipzig spearheaded by chief editors Helmut Loos and Wilhelm Seidel. They determined 500 additional letters hitherto unknown. Versions of the letter texts have been compiled from a scholarly-critical analysis of the sources, their historical context has been discussed and comments on all points in need of explanation have been made.This edition of the complete letters consists of 12 volumes and a CD-ROM. Each volume contains indices of mentioned individuals and institutions, compositions by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Fanny Hensel as well as a register of place names and currencies. In this way one obtains an all-encompassing view of this unique historical cosmos.The Complete edition has been produced to the highest standards in terms of layout, cover and binding. It is an ideal collector’s item for bibliophiles, providing an excellent means for studying the composer and the period in which he lived.The CD-ROM forms a valuable addition to the printed volumes. It offers the complete printed edition in the form of pdf. files, thereby making its approximately 9,500 pages digitally accessible and enabling letters and the corresponding commentary to be read in parallel. All terms can be located quickly and conveniently via a full text search.(The 12 volumes as well as the CD-ROM can only be purchased complete).- German text onlyThe EditorsHelmut Loos is Professor of Musicology at the University of Leipzig. He specialises in the music of the 19th and 20th centuries, in particular the reception of Beethoven, sacred music and links between Germany and Central and Eastern Europe. Wilhelm Seidel was professor at the universities of Heidelberg, Marburg and Leipzig. His publications are devoted to the temporal structure of music, music aesthetics in the 18th and 19th centuries and music of the 16th to 20th centuries, currently on Mozart and Mendelssohn.

This celebrated song is based on a poem by Julie Hausmann (1826-1901), a Latvian teacher who was probably blind. The text draws on her personal experience and unshakeable faith in God, death and eternal life. The melody by Friedrich Silcher is written in a simple and delicate style but also draws on the grand romantic tradition of Wagner and Bruckner. This arrangement can also be performed with a mixed choir. The choir parts are in German. Der Komponist Jacob de Haan hat sich mit dieser Bearbeitung für Blasorchester eines bekannten und beliebten Kirchenliedes angenommen. Der Inhalt des Liedes - blindes Gottvertrauen, das ewige Leben und ein Leben zu zweit - lassen eine Verwendung bei vielen kirchlichen Anlässen zu. Bezaubern Sie Ihre Zuhörer mit der stimmungsvollen Bearbeitung dieser schlichten, aber ergreifenden Melodie!

Change is inevitable. Developing slowly, as it does in the human existence, this original piece is punctuated with additive melodic fragments that establish the foundation for this dramatic musical transformation. Bold and satisfying, this will have them counting like pros! (2:00).

Ist musikalische Romantik eine Epoche, ein Stil oder bloß Kitsch? Wird sie von Literaten um 1800 erfunden? Ist Ludwig van Beethoven ein waschechter Romantiker oder doch erst Robert Schumann oder Richard Wagner? Irrt E. T. A. Hoffmann, wenn er schon Joseph Haydn und Wolfgang Amad Mozart zu Romantikern erklärt? Kurzum: Wann fängt die Romantik eigentlich an?Das Buch begibt sich auf Spurensuche nach den Anfängen der Romantik, beobachtet einen Wandel im Nachdenken über Musik, zeigt Ästheten, Literaten und Musiker in ihren Debatten um moderne und experimentelle Konzepte des Komponierens und Schreibens.Musik hat mehr als nur teil am Ereignis der Romantik, die in ihrer Kritik an einer engen Rationalität die Weltsicht unserer Moderne mitgeprägt hat. Musik sorgt für nachhaltige Hörerlebnisse der um 1770 geborenen Künstler, sie konfrontiert mit Neuem, Unerhörtem, sie entführt eine ganze Generation in Geisterreiche und Traumbilder. Sie ist nichts weniger als mitverantwortlich für die Anfänge der Romantik überhaupt. Das Buch begleitet diese Entwicklung bis zu Hoffmanns berühmter Rezension der 5. Sinfonie Beethovens aus dem Jahre 1810: als Ende des Anfangs.Die AutorinChristiane Wiesenfeldt ist Professorin für Musikwissenschaft an der Universität Heidelberg. Im Zentrum ihrer Forschungen und Publikationen stehen die Musik, Konfession und Liturgie der Frühen Neuzeit, Musikgeschichte als Rezeptionsgeschichte, musikalische Romantikund Heimatkonzepte sowie Phänomene wie der Werkbegriff und die Selbstreflexion in der Musik. Bei Bärenreiter erschien das von ihr herausgegebene „Mendelssohn-Handbu ch“ (BVK02071).

Few young people live closer together than do band members, as they work together, laugh together and cry together through the years of their involvement in musical activities. It is sad indeed when death strikes. RIVER SONGS was commissioned to commemorate the lives of two such young musicians (one white and one African-American). These two appropriate works, DEEP RIVER and SHALL WE GATHER AT THE RIVER, were chosen as witness to our common bonds in this life and beyond. (duration 3:50).
