" Felix and Fanny " The Mendelssohn Project is planning to present the magical lives of the two siblings, Felix and Fanny Mendelssohn, live on stage in a series of performances around the world. The stage will be divided into two sections. One will be a bedroom and the salon at the Mendelssohn house in Berlin where they spent time as a child, the other side will be the ever-changing, ever-evolving world which Felix and Fanny inhabited during the first part of the 19th-Century – ranging from the castles of England, to the marshes of Scotland, to the palaces in Prussia, to Rome, Florence, Leipzig Paris, and much more. The backdrops for most of these scenes will be based on Mendelssohn's more than 300 paintings and drawing which Felix Mendelssohn also created in his prolific life.
