time that he wrote several of his most appreciated See also:works, in which may be traced influences of the contemporary See also:movement of music in See also:Germany, which See also:country he frequently visited during the years 1836–1842. At one of the Rhenish musical festivals in See also:Dusseldorf he made the See also:personal acquaintance of Mendelssohn, and soon afterwards renewed it at See also:Leipzig, where the talented See also:young Englishman was welcomed by the leading musicians of the rising See also:generation. At one of the celebrated Gewandhaus concerts he played his third pianoforte See also:concerto, which was received enthusiastically. An enthusiastic See also:account of the event was written by Robert See also:Schumann, who pronounced Bennett to be the most " musikalisch " of all Englishmen, and " an See also:angel of a musician " (copying See also:- GREGORY

A See also:good example of this may be studied in Bennett's See also:Capriccio in D See also:minor. His See also:great success on the See also:continent established his position on his return to See also:England. In 1834 he was elected organist of St See also:Anne's chapel (now See also:- CHURCH

An unpublished concerto in F minor, and the overture to the Naiads, impressed the See also:firm of Broadwood so favourably in 1836 that they offered the composer a year in Leipzig, where the Naiads overture was performed at a Gewandhaus See also:concert on the 13th of See also:February 1837.

This latter See also:post he held until 1866, when he became See also:principal of the Royal Academy of Music. Owing to his professional duties his latter years were not fertile, and what he then wrote was scarcely equal to the productions of his youth. The principal See also:charm of Bennett's compositions (not to mention his See also:absolute mastery of the musical See also:form) consists in the tenderness of their conception, rising occasionally to sweetest lyrical intensity. Except the See also:opera, Bennett tried his See also:hand at almost all the different forms of vocal and instrumental See also:writing.
