One of Victoria' s favourite composers, Felix Mendelssohn, would sometimes play his compositions for her to sing along to. Perfection. I wouldn' t go that far. This is what Victoria and Albert would do. Yes. There is a lovely story about Mendelssohn coming to visit Queen Victoria and Prince Albert here at Buckingham Palace, and Mendelssohn sits down at the organ in the private apartments and starts playing that piece, and the Queen walks in in her day dress and starts joining in. Mendelssohn is extremely impressed at how the Queen knows this song of his and knows all the words. And then he wrote home to his mother about it, and says how delighted he was that the Queen sang so beautifully, and then Albert sat down at the organ and started playing one of his compositions, and how impressed he was with Albert' s ability as an organist. |
