About this Performance
In May of 1847, composer Felix Mendelssohn learned of the death of his sister Fanny, four years his elder, an excellent musician and composer in her own right, who was his closest confidante. He wrote his last great work, as a “Requiem for Fanny.” Experience the storm of Felix Mendelssohn’s fiery Opus 80 String Quartet and enjoy the afterglow with artful arrangements of Shawn Mendes. The program begins with Fanny Mendelssohn’s exquisite String Quartet in Eb. A story of this fabled family of musicians told in music!
