Saulsmusic Posted September 6, 2006 Author Share Posted September 6, 2006 What 'eh' means? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JohnGalt Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 "Eh" is sort of like a "meh" but more negative, when used in a negative manner. :D There is no real meaning for it. It's like defining "um". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Mendelssohn rocks! I think there are probably quite a few fans on here. Nico and Evan included :D One of the very best early romantics IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JohnGalt Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Yeah, I'd have to agree with Daniel. Not my favorite, but still very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anders Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Of course i'm a fan of Mendelssohn. I mean, who isn't! He composed a wonderfull string octet (even thinking of it makes me all fuzzy inside) and some grandiose (not an insult, as would normally be the case if *I* were to use such a word :D) symphonies. I'm particularly fond of his use of counterpoint - mmmm, the string octet comes to mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Lee Graham Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Mendelssohn is on a par with Mozart (my idol) in my estimation. I wish I had a dime for every time his music brought tears to my eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say Mendel & Son got popular because queen victoria liked his music while in her bath or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calehay Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 String Quartet No. 2 Op. 13 Absolutely wonderful. If you haven't heard it, you must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saulsmusic Posted September 7, 2006 Author Share Posted September 7, 2006 The majority of Mendelssohn's works are Great, not only the string quartets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
