Fanny Mendelssohn's story is often told as a tragedy, a gifted and musically talented girl stopped from composing and performing music by male figures in her life. But what if that was not the case? A conversation with Marian Wilson Kimber, a musicology professor at the University of Iowa and the author of "The Suppression of Fanny Mendelssohn" talks with me about some of the real reasons Fanny performed so little. This episode was written, edited, and produced by Hannah L.
