  • Summary

    This chapter explores the extraordinarily close relationship between the two eldest Mendelssohn siblings, the challenges and occasional tensions between them, especially following Fanny’s marriage after which their ways separated. The two had access to the same economic status, social circle, educational opportunities, and entertainment, but their paths were largely determined long before they were born. Fanny and Felix provide a salient example of how gender above all else can determine the outcomes of an otherwise identical entry into the world. Contexts for the choices their parents made can be drawn from their family history; the results of those choices can be observed in how the relationship between Fanny and Felix formed and transformed from their years as students, to emerging composers, and then correspondents when their relationship was carried out primarily via letters.
