Book Description
Recent scholarship has vanquished the traditional perception of nineteenth-century Britain as a musical wasteland. In addition to attempting more balanced assessments of the achievements of British composers of this period, scholars have begun to explore the web of reciprocal relationships between the societal, economic and cultural dynamics arising from the industrial revolution, the Napoleonic wars, and the ever-changing contours of British music publishing, music consumption, concert life, instrument design, performance practice, pedagogy and composition. Muzio Clementi (1752–1832) provides an ideal case-study for continued exploration of this web of relationships. Based in London for much of his life, whilst still maintaining contact with continental developments, Clementi achieved notable success in a diversity of activities that centred mainly on the piano. The present book explores Clementi’s multivalent contribution to piano performance, pedagogy, composition and manufacture in relation to British musical life and its international dimensions. An overriding purpose is to interrogate when, how and to what extent a distinctive British musical culture emerged in the early nineteenth century. Much recent work on Clementi has centred on the Italian National Edition of his complete works (MiBACT); several chapters report on this project, whilst continuing to pursue the book’s broader themes.

Introduction to the Art of Playing the Pianoforte (Op. 42)

ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Muzio Clementi's Introduction to the Art of Playing on the Piano Forte (Op. 42) was specifically written for the piano and first published in 1801. Beethoven himself recommended and endorsed this method, and Chopin used it with his students. It includes a collection of 50 short pieces for beginners written by eminent composers such as Mozart, Haydn, J.S. Bach and Beethoven, which, combined with the conciseness of the tutorial itself, make this book a remarkable teaching tool. Recommended for every serious piano student looking to build a strong foundation of knowledge.
