Abstract

Despite the recent upsurge in interest in 19th-century female musicians, the modest but multi-faceted achievements of the Bonn composer, pianist, conductor, teacher, and writer Johanna Mockel, married Matthieux, remarried Kinkel (1810–1858) have received relatively little attention in German scholarship, and even less in English.¹ The latter is all the more surprising in that she spent the last years of her life in London,² where she died in 1858 after a mysterious defenestration that might have formed the subject of a short story by Conan Doyle.³
