Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel Piano Music and other fieldsAlthough best known as the sister of Felix Mendelssohn, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (1805 47) was a virtuoso pianist and a composer of considerable merit in her own right. Her oeuvre of more than 400 compositions remained largely unknown for more than a century after her untimely death, and her newly rediscovered reputation as a composer rests chiefly with her piano music. This volume is the first American publication of her important early works.
