Musical Form in the Age of Beethoven: Selected Writings on Theory and Method

Musical Form in the Age of Beethoven: Selected Writings on Theory and Method

Cambridge University Press | January 13, 1998 | English | PDF | 216 pages | 2.3 MB

A. B. Marx was one of the most important German music theorists of his time. This volume offers a generous selection of the most salient of his writings, the majority presented in English for the first time. It features the oft-cited but little understood material on sonata form, his progressive program for compositional pedagogy and his detailed critical analysis of Beethoven's Eroica Symphony. These writings thus deal with issues that fall directly among the concerns of mainstream theory and analysis in the past two centuries.

Review
"Students will find that this book will greatly assist their understanding of numerous analytical and theoretical concepts of 18th- and 19th- century music." W. E. Grim, Choice

Madame Youra Guller is one of the race of interpretative artists made for this type of work. She became known, between the two wars, as one of the great contemporary pianists. But she has never consented to become one of the celebrated idols woh travel continually around the world playing the same programme to the public. As a meticulous, modest, refined and almosts mystical pianist, each of her appearances on the concert platform has impressed her audience by the intensity of her performance and the nobility of her style. It is fitting that this record bears withness to such an artist in the recording of these two sonatas, in which she conveys all the solemn, profound, magical beauty in a personal rendering which has the mark of authenticity, as much in its conception as in its supreme execution.

Again, the playing is of the utmost profundity, among the greatest Beethoven interpretations ever recorded.

Beethoven's Complete Piano Sonatas

Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas include some of his most popular works as well as some of his most experimental. This course touches on every one of these fascinating pieces, approaching them chronologically, from the terse and powerful first sonata of 1795 to the revolutionary Hammerklavier Sonata of 1818 and the radical last three sonatas of 1820–1822.
