Background: Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy was the last great 19th century composer whose works were not completely listed. In the Mendelssohn anniversary year of 2009 this loophole has been closed thanks to the publishing of the Leipzig Edition of the works of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy by the Saxon Academy of Sciences in Leipzig. It was only in 2007/2008, as a result of research work that the musical public first gained awareness of among other pieces, 61 of a total of 115 songs composed for voice and piano.

The “forgotten” songs included in this CD date from throughout the composer’s entire creative period, and demonstrate superbly the many facets, colours and richness of ideas of his musical creations. The songs have been combined with a completely different artistic genre, one which was Mendelssohn’s own: the songs without words - lyrical piano pieces with vocal style melodies.

COMPOSER: Felix Mendelssohn
TITLE: Forgotten songs
TRACKS: Sicheln schallen Ahren fallen. Ich denke dein wenn durch den Hain. Nacht ist um mich her. Was will die einsame Trane. Schlummre sanft und milde. Rieselt hernieder schaumende Fluten. Lied ohne Worte in A minor op.85 No.2. Weiter rastlos atemlos voruber festlich helles Schloss. Zarter Blumen leicht Gewinde. Sanft entschwanden mir der Kindheit Tage. Immer fort von Ort zu Ort. Leb wohl mein Lieb und weine nicht. Ich danke Gott dir Gott im hohen Himmel. Lied ohne Worte in A op.53 No.6. Mein Liebchen wir sassen beisammen. Charakterstuck in E minor op.7 No.1. Ich reit ins finstre Land hinein. Sanft weh'n im Hauch der Abendluft. Warum sind denn die Rosen so blass. Lied ohne Worte in E flat op.30 No.1. Ich weiss mir'n Madchen. O konnt' ich zu dir fliegen. Lied ohne Worte in G op.62 No.1.
