The music world has long been familiar with Mendelssohn's celebrated, standard-setting Piano Trio in D minor op. 49. No one, however, knew how many stages this masterpiece went through before it was finally published in 1840. According to preliminary sketches that can no longer be reconstructed, the early version of the of the work in its traditional piano-trio scoring was written in spring 1839. It was given its first performance at the Mendelssohn home in Berlin and remained unpublished. The following year, Mendelssohn brought out a version of the work with flute instead of violin at the request of an English publisher. He had already strongly reworked the original version for the publication. Another revision was made of the flute version, which not only took into account the different technical possibilities of a wind instrument, but also affected the compositional substance of the work. Thus Mendelssohn very nearly did write his D minor Piano Trio three times!

In the last year of his life, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809-1847) composed the six charming Children's Pieces, op. 72 (EB 8317). In contrast to the collections of children's pieces (by Schumann or Reger, for example), these have remained relatively unknown. Admittedly, however, they here and there demand technical and musical accomplishments that are beyond those to be expexted of beginners and belong to an intermediate stage of instruction. In the present edition, minor re-arrangements and cuts (in op. 72 no. 6) are intended to make the music more accessible to a child's understanding. The Songs without Words presented here are musically more demanding. From the total of 48 pieces, I have selected three slow compositions in which simple, beautiful melodie lines are supported by chorale-like piano textures. True performance of these pieces requires clean polyphonic chord playing and a cultivated pedal technique. The selection of pieces in this edition will, it is hoped, stimulate renewed interest in the piano music of Mendelssohn, which is so neglected today.

In 2009 the Staatsbibilothek zu Berlin succeeded in obtaining an important autograph of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy from a private owner. In the spring of 1837 he composed his four Quartets for Men's choir a cappella, whose texts were written by Goethe and Heine. In the autograph the lied Dreistigkeit is in a version unknown until now. It is published here for the first time. The present edition, published in cooperation with the Staatsbibliothek, presents all four of the pieces in high quality color facsimiles, as well as in a modern engraved edition.

Die Sechs Elegien fur das Pianoforte des grossen Schweizer Komponisten der Romantik erscheinen hier zum ersten Mal im Druck. Sie zahlen zweifellos zu Frohlichs instrumentalen Hauptwerken und zeichnen sich durch eine an Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdys fruhromantischer Kantabilitat geschulte Schreibweise aus, in Verbindung mit grosser autobiografischer Expressivitat. Diese Edition ist ein bedeutendes Dokument der schweizerischen Romantik und eine wichtige und wertvolle Erweiterung des Repertoires.
