Russell Saunders, professor of organ at the Eastman School of Music, died suddenly and unexpectedly on December 6, 1992. He was generally acknowledged to be the foremost teacher of organ in the United States, if not the world, and a most important link between the worlds of scholar and performer. This volume, planned by his colleagues as a Festschrift in honor of his seventieth birthday, is now a memorial.

Since about 1970 there has been a veritable renaissance in scholarship and performances concerning the works of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Fanny Hensel. The essays in this book, presenting the findings of three generations of members of the international community of Mendelssohn/Hensel scholars, constitute a compendium of cutting-edge research relating to these two important representatives of nineteenth-century musical culture.
