Forlagets omtale: "Brother and sister Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn enjoyed a close bond, and theirs was one of the most significant musical relationships of the nineteenth century. They shared and commented on each other's compositions, and although each was highly appreciative of each other, they also offered frank and often critical advice. Their travels produced some of their finest music. Two of Felix's best-loved works, the Hebrides Overture and the Scottish Symphony, were inspired by his 1829 visit to Scotland, whilst Fanny's innovative piano cycle Das Jahr was a musical response to the tour of Italy she made in 1839-40. Combining letters, sketches and paintings with an accompanying narrative describing their journeys, this is a unique, intimate portrait of the two Mendelssohns and the works they wrote as a result of their travels to the opposite ends of Europe." . - Engelsk tekst
