Mendelssohn’s Chamber and Keyboard Music (Wednesdays)

Mendelssohn has not always enjoyed the reputation he deserves. But his music was seen by Nietzsche as the vital link between Beethoven and Wagner among German composers. This course - like its counterpart next term - sets out to show why. His early piano quartets, the sensational octet, the six string quartets and two piano trios prove that his chamber music covers a startling range of styles and emotions. His scintillating keyboard music shows the influence of Bach, Beethoven and Weber.
