Composed by Fanny Cecile Mendelssohn. Edited by Willi Gundlach. Duets, a Cappella. First edition. Vocal Music. Full score. Furore Verlag #FUE 6420. Published by Furore Verlag (FV.FUE-6420).ISBN 979-0-50012-642-3.
The 27 duets composed by Fanny Hensel feature great variety in terms of form and color, and the very earliest one of them was even included by brother Felix in his 12 Songs collection. Some of them are plain pieces intended for domestic music-making (in particular, the a cappella duets), some are wonderful concertante works. While the duets for 2 female voices and piano are quite popular in part and have already been recorded on CD, almost none of the pieces for soprano and tenor plus piano has become generally known so far. Still, they include some particularly ambitious duets which go clearly beyond private performance settings.
