Granddaughter of the philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and sister of the composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Fanny Hensel (1805-1847) was an extraordinary musician who left well over four hundred compositions, most of which fell into oblivion until their rediscovery late in the twentieth century. In Fanny Hensel: The Other Mendelssohn, R. Larry Todd offers a compelling, authoritative account of Hensel's life and music, and her struggle to emerge as a publicly recognized composer.
Larry Todd is Arts & Sciences Professor of Music at Duke University; recognized in the New York Times as "the dean of Mendelssohn scholars in the United States." Guggenheim Fellow and Fellow of the National Humanities Center; author of Mendelssohn: A Life in Music (OUP, 2003), which was named Best Biography in 2003 by the Association of American Publishers.
