Elisabeth von Herzogenberg née Elisabet von Stockhausen (born in Paris on 13 April 1847; died in Sanremo on 7 January 1892) was a German pianist, composer, singer and philanthropist.


Biography


Her father had served as a Hanoverian ambassador and was a pianist linked to Frédéric Chopin and Charles-Valentin Alkan. Although a Protestant, she married the Catholic Heinrich von Herzogenberg.[1] She is known in large part for her association with Johannes Brahms, with whom she studied and with whom she and her husband corresponded copiously.[2] As an aristocratic musician, she largely did not perform or publish for the public,[3] but did arrange children's folk songs.[4] Ethel Smyth devoted chapter XX of her Impressions That Remained: Memoirs to her.[5]
