	200th birthday of Fanny Hensel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Fanny Hensel, née Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1805-1847), has been long and unjustly overlooked as a serious composer, despite a considerable and impressive oeuvre comprising numerous piano pieces, innumerable songs, duets, trios, a cappella choral works, chamber music for different instruments, an overture, an oratorio and several major cantatas.
		Overshadowed by the glory of her younger brother, Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847), she was writing music at a time when it was considered unsuitable for a woman of the upper middle classes to have ambitions as a professional musician.
		In 1829, after a courtship of several years, she married the painter Wilhelm Hensel who was a good deal more supportive of her composing.

	Ph.D. Dissertation Abstracts
		Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (1805-1847) was a composer, performer, and conductor of unusual talents in nineteenth-century Prussia.
		Since Fanny Hensel was denied a professional career as a composer because she was a woman, this paper describes: (1) nineteenth-century attitudes toward women, (2) female relatives who served as models for Hensel, and (3) the musical heritage passed down through her mother’s family.
		The published letters and diaries are reexamined for facts about her influence on Gounod, the importance of her performances of Bach, Beethoven, and Mendelssohn to the nineteenth-century popularity of these composers, and her feelings on the restrictions placed on her as a woman.
