The story of such a great composer was a delight in every way. Thank you so much for taking the time to share this wonderful story.

I didn't realize they were both so musical and I surely didn't know about their friendship with Felix Mendelsohn. And I had forgotten that he died way too young. I loved this story -- and I do want to go and listen to some of his music right now!

Sai, mio padre amava la musica, e diresse anche la corale del Duomo di Burano (Ve), sua terra natia, per anni. Ha insegnato musica in gioventù, mentre purtroppo noi figlie, non abbiamo coltivato tale passione. Ma amiamo entrambe la musica, e le emozioni che trasmettono i brani di Mendelssohn sono uniche, e questo lo devo a mio padre che ce lo fece conoscere. Ed ora ringrazio anche te per avermene parlato. Meravigliosa tu.
