Mendelssohn's lyrical piano pieces 'Lieder ohne Worte' [Songs without Words] are among the most popular of his compositions. Over 25 years Mendelssohn published his song-like melodies in 8 volumes altogether, consisting of 6 pieces each. Accordingly, the groups of works are now published in separate editions in the Edition Schott series.
