Klavierwerke, Band 1: Lieder ohne Worte
Mendelssohn Bartholdy unterlegt in den meisten der Lieder ohne Worte gesangliche Melodien mit durchgehenden Begleitfiguren, wodurch die Kompositionen in die Nähe kantabler Konzertetüden rücken.Unter dem Titel Lieder ohne Worte erschienen insgesamt acht Hefte mit je sechs lyrischen Klavierwerken, die Hefte 7 und 8 erst einige Jahre nach Mendelssohns Tod.
