Description:
It was Schlesinger, the publisher, predecessor of Robert Lienau, who was among the first to edit some of Fanny Hensel's compositions in her lifetime (op. 4 and 5 among others). The volume presented here takes up this tradition: it contains 5 pieces (plus critical commentary) - previously unpublished - taken from an album which Fanny Hensel had compiled for her brother, Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, and which she had copied by a writer. Fanny Hensel herself was an outstanding pianist. Her piano pieces are characterized by lyric and virtuoso moments as well as biographical hints and allusions. She is a composer worth discovering! Another first print containing 5 of her late piano pieces, dated 1843 and 1844, can be ordered with the number RL 40400.
