Today marks the 200th birthday of German composer Felix Mendelssohn. The prolific composer is the subject of a recent collection of essays edited by Siegwart Reichwald entitled Mendelssohn in Performance. This book is one of the first studies to explore Mendelssohn's approach to performing and provides valuable insights into 19th-century performance practice issues. Contributors include Clive Brown, John Michael Cooper, Kenneth Hamilton, Monika Hennemann, Peter Ward Jones, David Milsom, Siegwart Reichwald, Douglass Seaton, and Ralf Wehner.
