Four years later Mendelssohn met her and became her teacher in counterpoint and thoroughbass. He was charmed by her gifted and poetic nature, and calls her "one of the loveliest creatures I have ever seen. She has the gift," he continues, "of composing songs, and of singing them, in a degree that I have never known before."
We would also examine his Polonaises, Mazourkas, Waltzes and Boleros. But this is not the time or place for such a study, which would be interesting only to the adepts in Counterpoint and Thoroughbass.
In the presence of a genius like Pablo de Sarasate they are more or less perplexed, it is as though you ask them to describe in set, cold terms the counterpoint and thoroughbass of the wind's symphony to the trees, the great ocean's sonata to the shore, or the delicate madrigals sung almost inaudibly by little bell-blossoms to the tinkling fall of April rain.
The maiden is overcome with emotion and faints for joy. The final quartette is a sad affair, musically speaking, constructed on the Marquis's own ideas of thoroughbass.
