Felix Mendelssohn
Jakob Ludwig Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (3 February 18094 November 1847), born and widely known as Felix Mendelssohn, was a German composer, pianist, organist and conductor of the early Romantic period.
Mendelssohn's compositions include symphonies, concertos, piano music and chamber music.
His best-known works include his overture and incidental music for "A Midsummer Night's Dream", the "Italian Symphony", the "Scottish Symphony", the oratorio "Elijah", the overture "The Hebrides", his mature Violin Concerto, and his String Octet.
The melody for the Christmas carol
"Hark!
The Herald Angels Sing" is also his.
Mendelssohn's "Songs Without Words" are his most famous solo piano compositions.
A grandson of the philosopher Moses Mendelssohn, Felix Mendelssohn was born into a prominent Jewish family.
He was brought up without religion until the age of seven, when he was baptised as a Reformed Christian.
Felix was recognised early as a musical prodigy, but his parents were cautious and did not seek to capitalise on his talent.
Mendelssohn enjoyed early success in Germany, and revived interest in the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, notably with his performance of the "St Matthew Passion" in 1829.
He became well received in his travels throughout Europe as a composer, conductor and soloist; his ten visits to Britain – during which many of his major works were premiered – form an important part of his adult career.
His essentially conservative musical tastes set him apart from more adventurous musical contemporaries such as Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner, Charles-Valentin Alkan and Hector Berlioz.
The Leipzig Conservatory, which he founded, became a bastion of this anti-radical outlook.
After a long period of relative denigration due to changing musical tastes and antisemitism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, his creative originality has been re-evaluated.
He is now among the most popular composers of the Romantic era.
Michelangelo Faggioli
Michelangelo Faggioli( 1666–1733) was an Italian lawyer and celebrated amateur composer of humorous cantatas in Neapolitan dialect.
A founder of a new genre of Neapolitan comedy, he was the composer of the opera buffa" La Cilla" in 1706.
Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage (Mendelssohn)
Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage ("Meeresstille und glückliche Fahrt"), Op. 27, is an orchestral concert overture by Felix Mendelssohn inspired by the same verses that inspired Beethoven's 1815 cantata of the same title (and indeed inspired by Beethoven's version, which is in the same key, D major).
Mendelssohn's work was first performed in 1828.
The titles of Goethe's two poems are not synonymous: in the days before steam, a totally calm sea was cause for alarm; it is only when the wind at last rises that the ship can continue on its journey.
Mendelssohn's version concludes with a fanfare of trumpets suggesting the ship's final arrival at its port of destination.
Scored for piccolo, 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, double bassoon, serpent, 2 horns, 3 trumpets, timpani and strings, the piece is programmatic for its reference of the two poems by Goethe.
These two poems were extremely popular, and at the time of the premiere, Mendelssohn could have assumed that the audience would have been familiar with both poems and able to follow the programme of the music with minimal aid.
The work is a concert overture - meaning that it is not intended as a prelude to a larger work such as an opera (as 'overture', deriving from the French for 'opening', more often implies).
Instead, the piece is performed as an independent piece in a symphonic concert.
The term overture here refers to the use of melody and form.
However, it could also be considered as an early form of tone poem.
Edward Elgar quotes a theme from the overture in the 13th variation of his  to represent one of his "friends pictured within" on a ship bound for Australia or New Zealand.
