The Romantic composer Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809-1847) has been highly regarded in Britain from the time of his first visit in 1829. His anthem Hear My Prayer has been a bastion of the Anglican choralrepertoire since its composition in 1844.O For The Wings Of A Dove is the most famous passage from Hear My Prayer and has rightly gained fame in its own right as a piece for solo Voice. Thegraceful melodies and use of the full range make it a challenging but highly rewarding piece for any Soprano or Treble. It is presented here with an accompaniment suitable for the Piano.

This volume comprises 46 unknown songs of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy: Musical versions of poems by Scott/Storck Matthisson Hölty Heine Gellert and more are waiting to be discovered. „ Lied zum Geburtstag meines guten Vaters“ a
