Joachim was intent on creating popular works, not least at the urging<br />
of his family, but they also bore witness to his urbanity: the young<br />
Jewish-Hungarian musician spent many summers in England and its<br />
familiar, Irish melodies held great appeal for English audiences.<br />
Performances of the “Fantasy on Hungarian Themes” in German<br />
cities met his need for self-display as the “Hungarian lad”, to use<br />
Mendelssohn’s jocular epithet. Joachim was well aware that the<br />
style hongrois was all the rage in European capitals.<br />
