| Felix
Mendelssohn is regarded by classical music aficionados and critics
alike, as one of the most prolific and gifted composers the world
has ever known. Even those who could not name any of his works
have heard it, as his "Wedding March" from "A Midsummer Night's
Dream", which has accompanied many a bride down the aisle.
Whether he was born with his incredible talent or was
the product of an artistically and intellectually-inclined family
will remain a mystery, but like all prodigies, Mendelssohn showed
signs of true genius from childhood.
Regarded by some critics as the 19th century
equivalent of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and others as a great
composer who's contribution would have been greater, had his life
been marred with more hardships, everyone should agree that he
deserves his place amongst the best, and most influential.
