	Felix Mendelssohn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mendelssohn was born in Hamburg on February 3, 1809, the son of a banker, Abraham, who was himself the son of the famous Jewish philosopher, Moses Mendelssohn.
		Mendelssohn was also a major factor in the recovery of Mozart's works, and his own music (like that of other composers at the time) showed both Bach's and Mozart's influence.
		Mendelssohn travelled widely in Europe throughout his life, and a visit to Italy inspired one of his best known works, the Symphony No 4 in A major, known as the Italian, the final version of which was completed in 1834.
