Description: March 19, 2010 4 PM Rare Book Room Perkins Library, Duke University West Campus Click here for parking information. R. Larry Todd Penelope Jensen Fanny Hensel (1805-1847)�child prodigy, virtuoso pianist, and prolific composer of well over four hundred works�was an extraordinary musician and astute observer of European culture. Granddaughter of the Enlightenment philosopher Moses Mendelssohn and sister of the legendary composer Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, she has, in recent decades, finally secured her place as the leading European woman composer of the nineteenth century. She excelled in exquisite songs of epigrammatic intensity and short, lyrical piano pieces, but the expressive range of her art also accommodated virtuoso piano and chamber works, orchestral music, and cantatas that paid homage to J. S. Bach. R. Larry Todd, author of the award-winning Mendelssohn: A Life in Music, will discuss and sign copies of his newly released biography, Fanny Hensel: The Other Mendelssohn. He will be joined by soprano Penelope Jensen to perform some of Hensel's songs, which her brother recognized as among the finest examples of the genre.

Although Stacy's family blamed Jace, saying she wanted to end the engagement, he knows their love was mutual, and has never believed it was suicide. Certain that Priory House holds the key, he buys the estate. He detests the rambling house on sight; however, he is intrigued by the Victorian ghost of Ann Stuart because, like Stacy, she supposedly committed suicide before her wedding to escape from marrying her intended groom. Jace knows that if he can untangle Ann's mystery, he can find out what really happened to Stacy. He gets help from his beautiful next-door neighbor, Nigh Smythe, a war correspondent on leave following a tragedy. Join us as we unravel the mystery of Priory House in Someone to Love by Jude Deveraux.
