Summary
Mendelssohn's Lieder Ohne Worte , or "Songs without Words," is among the most loved, most played collections in the Romantic piano repertoire. Reproduced from the authoritative Breitkopf & H#65533;rtel edition, this volume contains all of these popular compositions -- more than 40 pieces, including such favorites as Spinning Song , Spring Song , and Venetian Gondola Song.
Composed at various points throughout his life, Mendelssohn compiled this collection of short works for the amateur pianist looking for high quality, yet not-to-difficult music. Still practiced and performed today, "Songs without Words" is often considered to be Mendelssohn's greatest legacy as a composer. For study or play, this work represents and admirable addition to any music library.
