Спасибо. Сейчас слушаю лекции Ивана Соколова о "Временах года" Чайковского. Узнала от него, что и у Фанни Мендельсон такой же цикл пьес. Спасибо, что выложили пьесы по времени исполнения. По идее Соколова (и не только его) каждый месяц соответствует семи годам жизни человека (1-7 лет - январь, ... всего 84 года). Интересно сравнить исполнение этого цикла у разных композиторов

Thank you so much for doing this!

[@jerrydavid4615]

I love this!

[@elizabethguerrero580]

Thanks a lot for this list! It makes the piece much more enjoyable

[@dennismclaughlin6394]

Listenening to this today, Fanny's 216th birthday. So beautiful. A great pleasure. Thanks to Google for reminding the public of Fanny and her music. And thank you, Miss Zhu. Like her brother's, Fanny's life was much too short. The world is the poorer.

I am a direct descendant of Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel. Thanks so much for sharing this! I am listening to her music for the 1st time tonight ❤️

[@melindanichols4929]

I wonder how our histories becomes so lost. Thank goodness you've found and reclaimed yours. Do you play or enjoy music?

[@MegaMech]

@@melindanichols4929 I'd argue it's not lost. There's lots of historical records. However, there are certain areas completely undocumented such as the Baroque minuet.

[@mariagraziazollo9180]

Great! ❤️ Fanny Mendelssohn was a true genius of music, like her brother of her, but unfortunately she is still little known, especially here in Italy. It must be made known more and more. Her genius is at the same level as the great giants of music and therefore she must be made known in concerts, in theaters, to the general public, as well as in strictly musical environments.

[@pilouetmissiou]

So beautiful Das Jahr ....my reference is the performance of Anna Shelest... that performance is the best one, for me...

[@elizabethguerrero580]

Thanks a lot for bringing to life this wonderful piece by Fanny Mendelssohn, whose work is so unknown and deserves her right place in the history of piano music. Thanks again, you play it beautifully.

[@jamesmorelandoliver8897]

astonishing - I have no words to express how beautiful this music

[@ClaireJanezic]

Thank you for playing this. This is my favorite performance by far of Das Jahr. This deserves way more views.

[@larsjonsson7961]

Thank you for a truly wonderful performance of this great work!

[@SerafinDrake]

Thank you for helping me discover a highly underrated, virtually unknown female composer. I read up on Fanny Mendelssohn when I saw the Google Doodle on her birthday. Apparently her father squelched her career, telling her that although her brother could make music his career, for her music could only be an "adornment" - she should focus on getting herself married and become a good wife and mother. She probably would have been told something similar even had she not had a musically gifted brother. At least her music is finally getting the attention it deserves. Better late than never?

[@patros6092]

Wonderful performance! Love it.. Bravo!!

[@oalfernandes]

I didn't know this composer. I researched and saw that she was Mendelshon's sister. I loved the music and the performance

[@shirlthegirl631]

She is also Moses Mendelssohn’s granddaughter and was married to Wilhelm Hensel 👍. I am a direct descendant.

[@oalfernandes]

@@shirlthegirl631 That's great!

[@johannsebastienbach]

Her style is quite similar to felix

Beautiful performance, very musical ❤

[@dianecatzel60]

Thank you for this beautiful music…pity Fanny is not recognized more….unfortunately the video stopped but it didn’t spoil the performance.

[@sandracosta29]

Perfection! And sublimely played!

[@catherinejones9396]

Adds to the concept of the Easter Sonata being Fannys work as well as being it's delightful self. Well played (and chosen) Jessica, Thank you for this download too..

ME ENCANTA LA MUCICA CLASICA

[@susanaalexandrajaramillobe5740]

Thank you. It is the first time I could hear Fanny. I am listening for fist time her story and looking for more information about hee

[@heidrunpreu9455]

Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel ist für mich eine wunderbare Entdeckung - ich wünschte, unsere Chorleiter würde wenigstens eins ihrer Musikwerke mit uns einstudieren ...

[@pilouetmissiou]

Her Hiob cantata is wonderful....on you tube you find a performance with Remmereit Arild or something like this..... Really wonderful....and also an Oratorio in the version with the Stuttgart philharmonic orchestra and very good singers.... Beautiful really.....these two performances are very good because of the tempi....

[@leslieboegner370]

...first time I actually liked "november". Thank you so much!

[@AlessandraCominiakaMeganCrespi]

This will appear in my 11th music and art history mystery; far better than Liszt's musical response to his Italian journey! My previous "Krimi" is on Clara Schumann, The Schumann Shaming--and while writing it I learned that Fanny and Clara did know each other later in life; in fact Fanny plannd to dedicate one of her compositions to her but died before she could arrange that with her publisher.

[@josephlaredo5272]

Had Fanny heard Chopin's Study op. 25 no. 12 when she wrote June? The closing pages are remarkably similar.

[@SerafinDrake]

By the way, I love the way you interpret her music.

[@jessiecurtis4422]

I love this!

[@robertamcguffin3446]

i never heard Das Jahr, until this, nor have I heard any of her fugues. I plan to correct that omission. Bravo Fan! If its one thing I'm sick to death of is male whitewash. My mother died when she was 92 and she never heard any Fanny or Amy Beach or hundreds of other gifted women. Even now, look at the number of views for this performance. Eat you heart out you men! you should play as well as Madeline or compose anything half as good as Fanny. Men always try to bury what they can't compete with..

Quite good even the performance I prefer is that from Anna Shelest...more relief... but this is beautiful too

[@johannsebastienbach]

Based on her music she studied jsbach very deeply much like felix

[@christopherwong7305]

I remember you played Rachmaninov piano concerto 1. (While you were still a little girl in Houston ). That was lovely. Can I have the privilege listening to that again ?

[@yanochkanakonechna]

Good evening! Can I use the audio from this video?

What is the title of the music??

[@ulrichhaug1347]

Warum nur so gänzlich ohne Publikum? Wird da Fanny schon wieder verheimlicht? 😢

[@andreasklein8767]

mach das radio aus

[@臼田雅之-g5i]

動画だと思って損した。

[@andreasklein8767]

ich verstehe diese Art der Musik nicht : langweilig, Leider diese begabte Komponistin hat irgendwas emotional versucht zu kreieren

[@elainewong5267]
