Special Aspects of Mendelssohn’s Biography 28
Any reader who has gone so far as to pick up this book probably already
has some knowledge of the fundamental reason for its existence: Felix
Mendelssohn Bartholdy, although known by name and by a few warhorse
compositions to virtually everyone familiar with any classical music, remains
one of the most ambivalently represented composers in the world of musical
scholarship. As Mendelssohn’s reception history has vacillated between
excessive adulation and equally excessive dismissals, the elite canon of first-
rate research sources has been almost hopelessly outnumbered by a pro-
liferation of biographies and critical essays based on little more than the
authors’ prejudices and assumptions—often reflecting (but not explicitly
articulating) racist agendas that most latter-day readers find untenable, irre-
levant, and abhorrent. The result is a bewildering landscape in which some
extraordinary fruits of scholarly research exist within a stiflingly arid waste-
land of music-historical prose. This book endeavors to assist researchers in
locating, assessing, and using those sources.
More directly, the book owes its existence to two of the great men of
latter-day Mendelssohn scholarship. Donald Mintz, whose seminal disserta-
tion on the manuscripts for three of the composer’s major works (item 833)
broke important new ground in enabling Mendelssohn scholarship to escape
the quagmire into which it had descended in the first half of the twentieth
century, began collecting the data and wrote preliminary annotations for
some sources. Professor Mintz was kind enough to share this material with
me when I was contracted for the book, and his contributions provided the
foundation for the completed project. For some entries Professor Mintz’s
information has been retained in toto or only slightly modified; these are
designated by a [DM] or a [DM/JMC] at the end of the annotation. In
addition, R. Larry Todd, my doctoral advisor at Duke University and by
consensus one of the deans of modern Mendelssohn scholarship, contributed
not only his global knowledge of sources, issues, and ideas, but also the
recommendation for taking on this project.
The volume also would not have been possible without the assistance of
a number of individuals and institutions. For shepherding the book through
the various complexities of production I owe a special debt of gratitude to
Richard Carlin (senior music editor), Rachael Shook, and Julie H. Ho at
Routledge. These individuals’ patience and professionalism made it possible
xii Preface to the First Edition and Acknowledgements
to negotiate some difficult deadlines and thorny editorial issues that might,
in less expert hands, have compromised the book.
Likewise, a debt of gratitude is owed to the staffs and interlibrary loan
departments at a number of libraries and universities during the prepar-
atory stages of work: the Mary Duke Biddle Music Library at Duke
University; the Warren D. Allen Music Library at The Florida State Uni-
versity; the Musikabteilung of the Hessische Landes- und Hochschulbi-
bliothek in Darmstadt; the Heinrich-Heine-Institut in Düsseldorf; the Music
and Strozier Libraries at Illinois Wesleyan University; the Music Division of
the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.; the Firestone Library at
Princeton University; the Musikabteilung and Mendelssohn-Archiv of the
Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin–Preußischer Kulturbesitz; the Musikabteilung of
the Stadt- und Universitätsbibliothek Frankfurt am Main; and the Music
Library of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. A debt of gra-
titude also goes to the two fine graduate students who assisted with the
proofreading and prepared the indexes for the first edition: William
McGinney and Aaron West. Finally, I wish to thank the staff of Willis
Library at The University of North Texas. Their extraordinary expertise,
efficiency, and patience have made the completion of this book a doubly
rewarding experience.

Acknowledgements for the Revised Edition
Since John Michael Cooper published the first edition of this book in 2001,
Mendelssohn scholars have not been idle. This revised and expanded edition
is a reflection of their hard work: there are nearly 300 new entries to expand
the book by about a third, most of them in the biographical (Chapter 1) and
specific musical study areas (Chapter 2). Please see the Introduction (p. xv)
for more about what is new and noteworthy in this volume and Mendelssohn
scholarship.
We owe the existence of this volume to the scholars who wrote the
works cited herein, but I owe the completion of this revision to many indi-
viduals who I would like to thank here. First, I would like to thank this
volume’s original author, John Michael Cooper, who—although he could
not revise this book himself due to other obligations—generously lent me his
advice on the bibliography and pointed out areas that were in need of special
attention. My dissertation advisor at Duke University, R. Larry Todd, gave
me his unflagging encouragement and support throughout the process, and
read the proofs, even while traveling extensively for his many engagements
during the Mendelssohn bicentenary year. The timely completion of and
international research for this book were greatly aided by funding through
Duke University, including the Julian Price Endowed Dissertation Fellow-
ship, the Dr. James W. Plonk Graduate Summer Research Fellowship, and
the Pre-Dissertation Research Travel Fellowship. To the editor of the series
at Routledge, Constance Ditzel, senior editatorial assistant Denny Tek, copy
editor Susan Dunsmore, and project managers at Taylor & Francis, Ulrike
Swientek and Megan Graieg, I wish to express my thanks for expertly
guiding this volume through the press
For their assistance with locating and verifying obscure, elusive, not-yet-
released, and international sources I would like to thank John Michael
Cooper (Southwestern University), Colin T. Eatock (University of Toronto),
Anselm Hartinger (Schola Cantorum Basiliensis), Hiromi Hoshino (Rikkyo
University, Tokyo), Makiko Kawamoto (Duke University), Donald Ober-
holzer-Landolt (Duke University), Sebastian Panwitz (Moses Mendelssohn-
Zentrum Potsdam), Herbert Schneider (Universität des Saarlandes), Jeffrey
S. Sposato (University of Houston), R. Larry Todd (Duke University), Jac-
queline Waeber (Duke University), Janet I. Wasserman (Schubert Society of
the USA), and Rodney Wynkoop (Duke University). I am greatly indebted
to the staff at the Duke University Libraries and at the many libraries
around the United States of America who processed my inter-library loan
