.. Without Words Vol. 2 |
 | Description: | Lieder ohne Worte â?? Songs without Words â?? seems
to be a description invented by Mendelssohn himself
for these short, lyrical and descriptive piano pieces
which he composed so prolifically. Indeed, it is
arguable that these works define his pianistic output
in the same way that the Mazurka defines Chopinâ??s.
Publishing them in sets of six, Mendelssohn
composed Lieder ohne Worte throughout his career
â?? they proved a type of composition to which he had
a lifetime attraction.
For the first volume, rather than approaching them
chronologically or as complete sets, Peter Donohoe
selected pieces to build a satisfying programme.
Here he does the same with all the pieces that
remain. In addition, the album features three freestanding significant works. The 17 Variations
sérieuses, from 1841, is one of Mendelssohnâ??s
largest solo piano works, and was published in an
album to raise funds for a monument to Beethoven.
The Phantasie on â??The Last Rose of Summerâ?? is a
much earlier work, based on the Irish folk melody
that â?? with added words by the Irish poet Thomas
Moore â?? took Europe by storm in the early 1800s.
The album concludes with Rachmaninoffâ??s piano
transcription of the Scherzo from A Midsummer
Nightâ??s Dream. - ..
