Fanny Hensel; Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy's sister; wrote music throughout her life. She originally published her songs and piano pieces under her brother's name; but soon began to use her own name instead; confiding to her diary that “I cannot deny that the joy I derive in publishing my own muic also increases my good humor.” Luckily for us; her great-granddaughter Fanny Kistner-Hensel gave G. Henle Verlag access to a previously unpublished selection of 11 piano pieces; and edited them herself from the autographs. After som early pieces focussing on piano instruction there follows a chronological sequence of personal character pieces such as the Notturno in G minor and “Abschied von Rom” [Departure from Rome]; composed from the mid-1830s.
