  • Author : Tilman Skowroneck
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2010-05-13
  • ISBN : 1139487868
  • Pages : 285 pages

Download or read book Beethoven the Pianist written by Tilman Skowroneck and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-13 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The widely held belief that Beethoven was a rough pianist, impatient with his instruments, is not altogether accurate: it is influenced by anecdotes dating from when deafness had begun to impair his playing. Presenting a detailed biography of Beethoven's formative years, this book reviews the composer's early career, outlining how he was influenced by teachers, theorists and instruments. Skowroneck describes the development and decline of Beethoven's pianism, and pays special attention to early pianos, their construction and their importance for Beethoven and the modern pianist. The book also includes discussions of legato and Beethoven's trills, and a complete annotated review of eyewitnesses' reports about his playing. Skowroneck presents a revised picture of Beethoven which traces his development from an impetuous young musician into a virtuoso in command of many musical resources.

  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 1994-09-08
  • ISBN : 9780521416443

Download or read book Performing Beethoven written by Robin Stowell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1994-09-08 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ten essays in this volume explore different aspects of the performance of instrumental works by Beethoven. Each essay discusses performance issues from Beethoven's time to the present, whether the objective be to realise a performance in an historically appropriate manner, to elucidate the interpretation of Beethoven's music by conductors and performers, to clarify transcriptions by editors or to reconstruct the experience of the listener in various different periods. Four contributions focus on the piano music while another group concentrates on Beethoven's music for strings. These chapters are complemented by an examination of Beethoven's exploitation of the developing wind choir, an evaluation of early twentieth-century recordings as pointers to early nineteenth-century performance practice and an historical survey of rescorings in Beethoven's symphonies.
