Abstract:
Comme son frere cadet le compositeur felix mendelssohn bartholdy, fanny (18051847) est issue d'une famille de banquiers berlinois. Elle est aussi la petite fille du philosophe juif allemand moses mendelssohn. Aussi douee pour la musique que son frere - c'etait l'opinion de goethe - elle recut la meme education et devint une remarquable pianiste et une authentique compositrice. A l'adolescence, il lui fut signifie que le destin d'une femme etait de s'occuper de sa maison. Elle epousa le peintre de cour wilhelm hensel, un excellent portraitiste, et en eut un fils, sebastian. Malgre la tristesse de voir son talent etouffe, elle continua a composer - principalement des lieder - et a organiser dans son salon des concerts qui, bien que prives, devinrent des evenements berlinois. Lors d'un voyage en italie , elle fut tres encouragee par les artistes de la villa medicis dont elle fit la connaissance a rome. Gounod surtout, a qui elle fit decouvrir la musique pour piano de bach, beethoven et mendelssohn , lui voua une admiration qui lui fit prendre conscience de sa propre valeur. Ce n'est qu'un an avant sa mort que fanny hensel decida de passer outre aux interdits de son pere et de son frere et de publier ses compositions. De bonnes critiques en paraissaient quand elle mourut subitement au milieu de la repetition d'un de ses concerts. C'est aussi d'un accident cardio-vasculaire que felix mourut six mois plus tard
Like her younger brother the composer felix mendelssohn bartholdy, fanny (18051847) was born in a bankers family in berlin. She was also the grand daughter of the german jewish philosopher moses mendelssohn. As gifted for music as her brother - so said goethe - she received the same education and became a remarquable pianist as well as an authentic composer. As soon as she emerged from childhood, she was told that the destiny of a woman was to look after her home. She married the court painter wilhelm hensel, an excellent portraitist, and had a son with him, sebastian. Inspite of the sadness brought on by her stifled talent, she continued composing - mostly lieder - and organising in her salon concerts which, although private, were considered important events in berlin. During a journey in italy, she was encouraged by the artists of the villa medici whom she met in rome. Gounod especially discovered through her bach, beethoven and mendelssohn's piano music ; his devotion to her made her aware of her own value. It was only a year before her death that fanny hensel decided to transgress her father's and brother's prohibition for her to publish her compositions. Good critics were appearing when she suddenly died in the middle of one of her concert rehearsals. Felix also died six months later from a cardio-vascular attack

Abstract:
The Lieder of Fanny Hensel have received very little attention from modern music scholars, and her music has mostly been looked at as only a sidebar to the music of her much more famous brother, Felix Mendelssohn. Adding to the pioneering works on Hensel's life and music by Marcia Citron, Stephen Rodgers, Yonatan Malin, R. Larry Todd, and several others, this study illuminates many of Hensel's characteristic text-painting devices and offers insight into her Lied style in general. I show how Hensel uses the musical parameters of melody, harmony, and their inherent attributes such as contour, texture, mode, modulation, text repetition, diatonicism, chromaticism, tessitura, and cadence types, and how they combine to interpret the texts she sets. Hensel's characteristic text-painting devices make her one of the most inventive song writers of the Romantic era.

Abstract:
This thesis is a study of four compositions written by Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, older sister of Felix Mendelssohn. Her music is compared with four pieces composed by Felix. This study shows that Fanny was a gifted and creative composer, even surpassing Felix and predating Brahms with her compositional ideas and progressive uses of harmony. Despite her excellent education and recognition among those who knew her well, she did not publicize her talent in any way because of pressure from her father, Abraham, and Felix to stay within the prescribed societal confines of wife and mother.

Full text
Abstract:
On Christmas Day in 1841, Fanny Hensel presented her husband with a Christmas gift—Das Jahr—a piano cycle comprised of twelve pieces, each one depicting a month of The Year. Not long thereafter, Fanny and husband Wilhelm would collaborate to create a Gesamtkunstwerk, reworking Das Jahr and expanding it by two additional expressions: vignettes drawn into the score by Wilhelm, and epigrams, snippets of poetry by master German poets. This dissertation seeks to answer the question: “What meaning is achieved by the intersection of the three modalities present in Das Jahr: textual (epigram), visual (vignette), and aural (music)?” The methodology considers the broader texts from which the epigrams are drawn in conjunction with Wilhelm’s vignettes and Hensel’s sonic landscape to arrive at an emergent meaning. An informed musical analysis drawing on formal considerations, contour, metaphor in music, topic theory, and harmonic function has been employed to arrive at the interpretation that will be presented. By analyzing these three modalities in conjunction with one another, a compelling narrative emerges, whereby the words of poets, the artwork of Wilhelm, and the aural world of Fanny conjoin to tell a story, one that relies upon the relationship between text, art, and music.

Abstract:
Das Jahr is considered Fanny Hensel's most impressive accomplishment of piano solo work. However, the only modern edition that is extant includes many additional editorial markings. By further analyzing the sections that are technically challenging or musically demanding from an interpretive standpoint, pianists wishing to perform the work will have to find workable fingerings and pedal markings to learn this piano cycle. For this reason, this dissertation will not only provide readers with an original text of Das Jahr, but also assist pianists in finding practical solutions that can help them to interpret this distinctive work successfully on the modern piano.

Abstract:
This thesis is a product of my inquiries into the questions surrounding women and music. It discusses some interesting patterns about the lives of women composers, and reveals through a social-critical approach the factors that contributed to the isolation and marginalization of two women composers, Clara Wieck-Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel and their conformity toward the prevailing norms and values of the nineteenth century. Analysing their character pieces inform us about their lives, style and the era in which they lived and in turn gives us new insights into these women's incursion into male territory. I chose to study character pieces because the character piece as a genre was very common among female composers and in the parlour environment. Understanding that music as a signifier of cultural and socio-political issues supports the idea that genres composed most often by women, such as the character piece in the nineteenth century are a result of the social ramifications that were part of that era.

Das Liedschaffen Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdys war zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts nur zu knapp zwei Dritteln der tatsächlichen Produktion bekannt. Erst im Jahre 2007 erschienene, bis dahin ungedruckte oder an entlegener Stelle veröffentlichte Lieder werden in vorliegender Studie zusammen mit den übrigen, nicht mit einer Opuszahl versehenen Liedern und Duetten zu thematischen Untergruppen geordnet und knapp in textlich-musikalischer Hinsicht charakterisiert. Diese Lieder und Duette, die nach dem Wunsch des Komponisten in den allermeisten Fällen nicht in die Öffentlichkeit gelangen sollten, stellen das gewohnte Bild Mendelssohns, das des Heiter-Sorgfältigen, in ein neues Licht.

Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, one of the most talented composers in Romanticism age, but she is not a well-known composer.According to reference books, she was remarked "the genius sister of Felix Mendelssohn". However, there are not many people talking about her compositions for a long time. Fanny showed prodigious musical ability when she was a child and began to write music, however, like many women at that time, Fanny did not benefit from the same musical education and upbringing as her brother, Felix, she learned mostly on her own and her talent was limited to be known. Some of her compositions were published in 1846, some of them were published by Felix after she died. But lots of them were out of print, only some manuscripts were kept by her family members. Besides lieder, she also composed around a hundred and twenty Piano, Chamber music, Cantata, Oratorio…etc. In 1965 the Mendelssohn Archive was founded at the National Library in Berlin,and belongs to Prussian culture property. Most of manuscripts of Fanny and Felix were available for study, but the complete list of Fanny's compositions didn't exist, so it's impossible to find a complete edition. So far, 192 pieces of her compositions are known, but nobody knows that how much people own the manuscripts in private. For further to understand her, this research will analyze two pieces of her lieder:“Mailied” and “Nähe des Geliebten”. Furthermore, the research also discuss about the music in her generation, her life, the poet Göthe and his life, analysis the poem and the music and the way to interpret.

Abstract:

Fanny Hensel wrote much of Felix Mendelssohn's music. Or so goes the popular misconception. It is true that Felix did publish six of his sister's Lieder under his own name, in his Op. 8 and Op. 9, but there is no evidence that anything else he published was actually by Fanny. The perpetuation of this idea is by no means new to our century; even during her lifetime, Fanny received letters alluding to the possibility that some of her music was masquerading as Felix's. But how could this supposition even be possible?

Complicating our reception of Hensel's works and our knowledge of her influence over him, and perpetuating our misconception (and perhaps hopes) that some of Felix's music was by Fanny was the unavailability of her music to the general public. For most of the twentieth century, she was known mostly by her eleven published opera (five of which were released posthumously). Before she was able to plan and accomplish any sort of systematic publication of her works, she died suddenly, at the age of 41, leaving behind upwards of 450 unrevised, unpublished works.

Clearly, we need to reconsider the term "Mendelssohnian," and bring Hensel to the foreground as an equal partner in forming the Mendelssohns' common style. I examine the roots of the "Mendelssohnian" style in their parallel musical educations, their shared enthusiasm for the music of Bach, and their simultaneous collision with Beethoven's music (and the diverse ways each responded to his influence). I explore in detail the relationship between Fanny, Felix, and her fiancé Wilhelm Hensel through the methodology of kinship studies, to contextualize what some have viewed as a quasi-incestuous sibling relationship within the norms for sibling communication in the nineteenth century. Finally, I discuss how deeply their separation after 1829 affected both Fanny and Felix, and how Fanny negotiated her changing life roles and ambitions as a composer and performer.

One work that Fanny never released, and, indeed, one work that has remained a mystery, is the Ostersonate (Easter Sonata). Believed lost since it was first mentioned in correspondence in 1829, the sonata resurfaced in the twentieth century, when it was recorded and attributed to Felix, and then disappeared again without a trace. In the absence of any identifiable manuscript, it had been impossible to definitively challenge this attribution. My research represents a major breakthrough: I traced the manuscript to a private owner and positively identified it as the work of Fanny Mendelssohn.

Lurking behind the popular misconception is a broader truth: Fanny Hensel can be heard in much of Felix Mendelssohn's music. In other words, what audiences have recognized as Felix Mendelssohn's music for nearly two hundred years would not have existed as such without the influence of Fanny Hensel. This idea in itself is hardly new, but by revising this line of reasoning, we see that it is equally possible that much of Fanny Hensel can be heard in Felix Mendelssohn's music. In the end, neither composer could have existed as we know them today without the other, and their shared musical style stands as a lasting testament to their shared identity as Mendelssohns.

Fanny Hensel (1805~1847), a female pianist during the period of romantic movement, created a set of works for piano, Das Jahr - 12 Charakterstucken fur das Forte-Piano. Since this work is co-created with her husband Wilhelm Hensel ( 1794~1861), who is a painter, the special aesthetics design made this work other then a normal form of sheet music, but a Gesamtkunstwerk. As a daughter of Mendelssohn family, Fanny Hensel received the musical education of Mendelssohn family. Because of her family background, Fanny Hensel faced circumstances that other composers does not face, such as the expectation from Mendelssohn family, the choice of her marriage, and the influence from her highly talented brother, Felix Mendelssohn. It is believed that the circumstances of her special background shaped the uniqueness of her works. This thesis aims to analyze Das Jahr - 12 Charakterstucken fur das Forte-Piano as a musical piece, as well as a Gesamtkunstwerk combining with poems, illustrations, and music.

The 19th-century woman composer, Fanny Hensel, geb. Mendelssohn (1805-1847) was born in Hamburg, Germany. She was the elder sister of the famous composer, Felix Mendelssohn. Her output in music included many piano, vocal and chamber music, but these works were rarely being published during her life time. The main focus of this paper is to study Fanny Hensel’s piano cycle “Das Jahr” . The cycle comprised twelve pieces each named after a month of a year and in this cycle Fanny combined poetry and illustration perfectly into a music diary. There are four chapters in the thesis. Chapter One is a discussion of related reference and literature. Chapter Two portrays Fanny’s biographical information. Chapter three explores the historical background of the pieces and compositional techniques. Chapter Four contains the analysis and interpretation of the music. The last chapter is a brief conclusion of the thesis.
