Fanny Mendelssohn (1805-1847) was a prolific German pianist
and composer. Even though she composed almost 500 musical pieces throughout her
life, many of them were originally published under the name of her brother
Felix.
She showed great musical talent from a young age;
her teacher praised her piano skills as by saying that “she plays like a man”. Even
while recognizing her talent, her father stated that, while music would become
Felix’s profession, it would always be just a pastime for her. Therefore, her
brother published several of her works under his own name in order for them to
be released to the world.
