Sposato offers a revisionist account of Mendelssohn's relationship to his Jewish roots. He challenges the notion that the composer's identity was strongly informed by a sense of Jewishness & argues that for much of his career Mendelssohn consciously attempted to distance himself from his Jewish heritage
