Book Description
"How did he do it"? As when one stands in front of a great novel or mystery book, this question comes to mind when listening to Beethoven's music. Why do his piano sonatas sound so different from Haydn's and Mozart's sonatas? What rules did he follow when he wrote them? Can we discern any patterns? What could a young musician learn from Beethoven's writing style that he/she could then use to compose her/his own music? Have the scores on hand, listen to a recording. And as you read the book, sit from time to time at the piano and try your own variations on Beethoven's ideas, a few bars at a time. Write them down in your own sketch book. Who knows? Perhaps, one day some of them will become the seeds from which you will write your own music. In ways you never thought before.

Beethoven's Last Piano Sonatas
Author: Heinrich Schenker
Publisher:
ISBN: 0199914265
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
Heinrich Schenker ranks among the most important figures in the development of western music theory in the twentieth century. His approach to the analysis of music permeates nearly every aspect of the field and continues to this day to be a topic of great interest among music theorists, historians, composers and performers. In his four volume work, Die letzen Sonaten von Beethoven: Kritische Ausgabe mit Einf hrung und Erl uterung (The Last Piano Sonatas by Beethoven: Critical edition with Introduction and Commentary) Schenker presented editions of Beethoven's Opp. 109, 110, 111 and 101 that were, at the time, unprecedented in their faithfulness to such authoritative sources as Beethoven's autograph manuscripts. He included a movement-by-movement and section-by-section discussion of form and content that grew increasingly penetrating from one volume to the next as the musical theory for which he is now known was developed, alongside inspired and detailed suggestions for the performance of each section of each work. In Beethoven's Last Piano Sonatas: An Edition, with Elucidation, noted Schenker scholar John Rothgeb presents the first English language edition and translation of these important works. Rothgeb builds upon Schenker's text, adding explanations of certain points in the commentary, references to corrections and other remarks entered by Schenker in his personal copies of the volumes, and graphic presentations of several passages (a practice that became standard in Schenker's own analytical work later in his career). Making these seminal works accessible to English speaking scholars and students for the first time, Beethoven's Last Piano Sonatas is an essential reference for music theorists, historians, performers, and composers alike.
