Here is a gentleman who knows all about the new opera, (1907). Creator: Unknown
Here is a gentleman who knows all about the new opera, (1907). When the young Mendelssohn was about 12 years old, he met the composer and conductor Julius Benedict, then a teenager: He therefore seized Benedict by the arm, exclaiming, You will come to my fathers house with me, will you not? On entering he retained Benedicts hand tightly in his grasp, conducted him at once upstairs, and, bursting into the drawing-room, where his mother was seated at her knitting, he exclaimed, Mamma, mamma! Here is a gentleman, a pupil of Carl Weber s, who knows all about the new opera, " Der Freischutz!" An episode from the life of German composer Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847). From " Story-Lives of Great Musicians", by F.J. Rowbotham. [Wells Gardner, Darton & Co. Ltd, London, 1907]

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Here is a gentleman who knows all about the new opera, (1907)", we are transported back to a moment in the life of German composer Felix Mendelssohn. The image captures a young boy, around 12 years old, holding tightly onto the hand of Julius Benedict, a composer and conductor whom Mendelssohn greatly admired. The photograph tells a heartwarming story as it depicts Mendelssohn's excitement and enthusiasm for music at such a tender age. Bursting into his mother's drawing-room with uncontainable joy, he introduces Benedict as someone who possesses extensive knowledge about Carl Weber's opera "Der Freischutz". This charming episode showcases Mendelssohn's passion for classical music and his eagerness to share it with others. The composition of the photo adds depth to its narrative. The lighting casts gentle shadows on their faces, emphasizing their connection and creating an intimate atmosphere. The unknown creator has skillfully captured this fleeting moment in time, allowing us to witness the genuine admiration between these two musicians. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot from 1907, we cannot help but be reminded of the power that music holds in bringing people together across generations. It serves as a reminder that even at such a young age, Mendelssohn possessed immense talent and an unwavering love for his craft. This print stands as both an homage to Mendelssohn's musical genius and an ode to the enduring impact of classical music throughout history.
