Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809 - 1847) Allemagne Jakob Ludwig Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy est un chef d'orchestre et compositeur allemand, né à Hambourg le 3 février 1809 et décédé à Leipzig le 4 novembre 1847. Il est le petit-fils du philosophe Moses Mendelssohn.
Très jeune, il se fait remarquer pour sa précocité, notamment par Goethe chez qui il joue. Son professeur, le compositeur Ignaz Moscheles, avoue ne pas avoir grand chose à lui apprendre tant il est doué. À seize ans, il a déjà composé ses douze symphonies pour orchestre à cordes, sa première symphonie, un octuor à cordes, ainsi que cinq concertos pour violon ou pour piano. Il joue avec sa s?ur cadette Fanny Mendelssohn, également virtuose du piano, dont il restera très proche tout au long de sa vie.
Directeur musical du Gewandhaus de Leipzig dès 1835, il est appelé dans les années 1840 à Berlin par le roi de Prusse Frédéric-Guillaume IV afin de réorganiser la vie musicale de la cité. Il devient alors le compositeur européen le plus célèbre de son époque, notamment en Angleterre. À Leipzig, dans les années 1840, il se lie d'amitié avec le compositeur Robert Schumann qui voit en lui le « Mozart du XIXe siècle. » Il encourage d'autres compositeurs, tels Joseph Joachim Raff ou Niels Wilhelm Gade.
Le style musical de Mendelssohn, à la fois lyrique et très travaillé sur le plan formel (avec l'utilisation fréquente d'ostinato), cédant plus tard la place à l'emploi de dissonances et de contrastes incisifs, fait de lui l'un des compositeurs essentiels du XIXe siècle.
On lui doit la redécouverte de Bach ou de Haendel en Allemagne.

The
Leipziger Ausgabe der
Werke von Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy
pursues the goal of
making accessible to the
public in an adequately
scholarly form all of
Mendelssohn's accessible
compositions, letters and
writings, along with all
other documents of his
artistic oeuvre. A
considerable number of
Mendelssohn's works are
still waiting to be
published; many others
have been published in an
unsatisfactory
manner.Though the new
Mendelssohn Complete
Edition follows the ten
volumes of the Leipziger
Mendelssohn Ausgabe (LMA)
published by the
Deutscher Verlag fur
Musik (DVfM) in Leipzig
since 1961, it sees
itself as a fundamentally
new conception which
reflects the present-day
standard of scholarly
editions.The first
volumes of the new
Complete Edition were
presented in Leipzig on 3
November 1997 at
Mendelssohn Festtage in
Leipzig.SON 411 - 413

This
volume contains three
reworkings and
orchestrations of
religious works by Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy
which were originally set
for smaller ensembles
(solo voices, four-part
chorus and organ). They
were composed at
different times and for
different occasions, two
of them as commissions.
The anthem ,,Why, o Lord,
delay forever MWV A 19
was originally the sacred
vocal piece MWV B 33,
published in England in
1841 with the additional
title ,,[…] The
Thirteenth Psalm, and in
Germany in the same year
as ,,Lass, o Herr, mich
Hilfe finden with the
title ,,Drei geistliche
Lieder which was composed
at the suggestion of the
English literature and
music lover Charles B.
Broadley who also
provided the paraphrase
of the psalm text. After
Mendelssohn had refused
an initial request by
Broadley to furnish the
anthem post festum with
an organ prelude, the
composer did not want to
turn down a second
request to orchestrate
the work and he even
expanded the existing
material with a lengthy
closing fugue involving
additional trumpets and
timpani. The ,,Ave Maria
MWV B 19 was written in
connection with
Mendelssohn's appointment
as municipal music
director, a position
which at the same time
included the
responsibility for the
musical organization of
church services. The
instrumentation of the
work with an
accompaniment of two
clarinets and two
bassoons as well as low
strings was due to the
fact that the organ in
Dusseldorf's principal
church St. Lambertus was
out of order for an
extended period of time,
and Mendelssohn
considered this solution
explicitly only as a
surrogate for the organ
should there be none. A
further psalm paraphrase
in English, this time by
William Bartholomew, of
the hymn ,,Hear my prayer
MWV B 49 was set to music
in early 1844; the
orchestration of the
organ part commissioned
by the distinguished
Dublin musician Joseph
Robinson was not
completed until 1847 so
that the premiere finally
only took place after
Mendelssohn's death. In
the further course of the
century ,,Hear my prayer
would, particularly in
the version with organ
accompaniment, come to
enjoy great popularity in
Great Britain and
Ireland.

This
Felix Mendelssohn
Bartholdy anthology
contains 19 sacred vocal
works in various choral
and sometimes additional
solo settings, with
organ, harpsichord, or
basso continuo
accompaniment. Among
these pieces composed
from 1821 to 1847 are six
works that were not
published during
Mendelssohn's lifetime.
Seven of the works
presented are each extant
in at least one other
authorized version that
has also been edited
here. The occasions and
circumstances of their
composition vary as much
as their musical
structures and
characteristics: Several
were intended for
specific performances;
others were written from
the outset for
publication.

Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy
lived in the heyday of
men's choruses. Early on,
the composer had
encountered the genre by
way of his teacher Carl
Friedrich Zelter and his
Berlin Liedertafel,
founded in 1809, had then
gathered his own
experience from the
Leipzig Liedertafel
societies, and was in
contact with a number of
male choral societies
throughout his lifetime.
Nevertheless, his
relation to male choral
singing was characterised
not only by his
inclination, but also by
critical distance. The
festive compositions for
male chorus and orchestra
forming the content of
this volume are all
commissioned works, two
of which, the so-called
Gutenberg-Kantate and the
Festgesang an die
Kunstler on a text by
Friedrich Schiller, also
appeared in print during
Mendelssohn's
lifetime.

Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy
fundamentally revised his
Elijah after its
successful world premiere
in Birmingham in summer
1846. However, the
individual layers of this
revision are less visible
in the autograph score
than in the piano-vocal
score that was made
parallel to it and which
the composer kept working
on for its simultaneous
publication in England
and
Germany. Awarded

Between
1834 and 1847 Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy
composed a total of 28
songs for mixed voices,
i.e. for two female
(soprano and alto) and
two male (tenor and bass)
voices each. The pieces
are arranged so that they
can be sung by four
individual singers as
well as by smaller
ensembles or large
choirs. The composer had
almost two-thirds of
these works published by
Breitkopf and Hartel in
the collections opp. 41,
48 and 59, combining
partly already existing
and partly newly composed
songs into a loose cycle
of six songs each. The
purpose of such
occasional music was
clear to him: ... the
most natural music of all
is when four people go
for a walk together, in
the forest, or on a boat,
and then immediately
carry the music with them
and in them. The present
volume contains all the
songs published and
unpublished during his
lifetime, as well as
their versions, which owe
their various performance
contexts.

Nine
variegated Sacred Vocal
Works with Orchestra by
Mendelssohn have been
compiled in this volume.
They stem not only from
various creative phases
of the composer, but also
in view of their vocal
settings show up marked
differences and thus
reflect the variety of
Mendelssohns creative
oeuvre. One shared aspect
is that all nine works
remained unprinted during
the composers lifetime.
Only the Lauda Sion
achieved celebrity; it
was published with the
posthumously attributed
opus number 73 and took
its place next to other
choral works by
Mendelssohn already in
the 19th century. Now
published within the
Mendelssohn Complete
Edition, it boasts a
text-critically revised
score available in many
cases for the first time,
and from which impulses
for musical practice are
sure to arise.
