Far from the troubled, coarse libertine that has become an archetype of the Romantic composer, Felix Mendelssohn was something of an anomaly among his contemporaries. His own situation -- one largely of domestic tranquility and unhindered career fulfillment -- stands in stark contrast to the personal Sturm und Drang familiar to his peers. Mendelssohn was the only musical prodigy of the nineteenth century whose stature could rival that of Mozart. Still, his parents resisted any entrepreneurial impulses and spared young Felix the strange, grueling lifestyle that was the lot of many child prodigies. Even in his youth, Mendelssohn moved with natural grace among the circles of influence in society, politics, literature, and art. The poet Goethe, who found Beethoven cantankerous and unpleasant company, took a tender, paternal interest in young Mendelssohn and was captivated by his talent and considerable charm. "I am Saul," he told the boy, "and you are my David. When I am sad, come and cheer me with your playing." Later in life, Mendelssohn enjoyed an idyllic marriage that was quite unlike the stormy romantic entanglements which profoundly affected such composres as Berlioz, Chopin, and Liszt. Mendelssohn was a true Renaissance man. A talented visual artist, he was a refined connoisseur of literature and philosophy. In addition to his lifelong, unbroken productivity as a composer, he was a conductor -- one of the first in the modern sense -of exceptional talent. Assuming the directorship of the Gewandhaus Orchestra in 1835, Mendelssohn raised the level of the still-thriving ensemble to a new standard of excellence. Mendelssohn's advocacy was the single most important factor in the revival of Bach's vocal music in the nineteenth century, most famously realized in the 1829 performance of the Saint Matthew Passion at the Berlin Singakadamie. One of the most remarkable aspects of Mendelssohn's career is the singular position the composer occupied in the annals of English music for nearly the whole of Victoria's reign (1837 - 1901). There is no better evidence to this effect than the first edition of Sir George Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians, completed in the 1870s. Mendelssohn's entry dispenses with the usual litany of biographical data; instead, noting the composer's date of birth, the author opines, "That was at all events a lucky Friday." The remainder of the entry (over one hundred columns) is similarly adoring and graciously peppered with such minutiae as the composer's aplomb in sealing letters. That this obsessive interest in Mendelssohn verged on adoration is evidenced by the fact that the length of his entry, in the same edition, significantly exceeds entries on Wagner, Brahms, Beethoven, Mozart, Handel, and Bach -- in certain cases by as much as tenfold. While Mendelssohn's name rarely arises in discussions of the nineteenth-century vanguard, the intrinsic importance of his music is undeniable. A distinct personality emerges at once in its exceptional formal sophistication, its singular melodic sense, and its colorful, masterful deployment of the instrumental forces at hand. A true apotheosis of life, Mendelssohn's music absolutely overflows with energy, ebullience, drama, and invention, as evidenced in his most enduring works: the incidental music to A Midsummer Night's Dream (1826/42), the Hebrides Overture (1830), the Songs Without Words (1830 - 45), the Symphonies Nos. 3 (1841 - 42) and 4 (1833), and the Violin Concerto in E minor (1844). While the sunny disposition of so many of Mendelssohn's works has led some to view the composer as possessing great talent but little depth, his religious compositions -- particularly the great oratorios Paulus (1836) and Elijah (1846) -- reflect the complexity and deeply spiritual basis of his personality. -- Michael Rodman
