| Description: |
Mendelssohn is one of the world's best-loved composers. Widely regarded in the last years of his short life as the world's greatest living composer, he has survived the assaults of detractors such as Wagner, George Bernard Shaw and the cultural ideologies of Nazi Germany to remain the creator of some of the most inspiring music ever written. |
| Synopsis: |
Mendelssohn is one of the world's best-loved composers. His greatest music - "The Hebrides" - is a cornerstone of the classical repertoire, while the "Wedding March" from his incidental music to "A Midsummer Night's Dream" has been the soundtrack to the happiest moments of millions of lives. The most astonishing child genius in the history of music, Mendelssohn was also an international celebrity. Widely regarded in the last years of his tragically short life as the world's greatest living composer, Mendelssohn has survived the assaults of such powerful detractors as Wagner, George Bernard Shaw and the cultural ideologies of Nazi Germany to remain, today as for his contemporaries, the creator of some of the freshest and most inspiring music ever written. |
