Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Beethoven’s Sonatas for Pianoforte and Violin are now available at a special set price. The set consists of volume I (BA 9014) and volume II (BA 9015). Beethoven’s ten sonatas for piano and violin, along with those by Mozart, constitute the heart of this classical music genre. Following the lead of Mozart’s late sonatas, Beethoven lets the violin part become increasingly independent from the piano part. Not only does Clive Brown’s scholarly critical edition offer a meticulously edited text but for the first time it presents a list of sources and a Critical Report. Furthermore Brown documents a great number of passages where, by today’s standards, the notation raises some questions. These passages had previously been overlooked in the autograph but their significance is now clarified. One example can be found in Beethoven’s “Tempo di Minuetto” from Sonata op. 30 No. 3, where he uses a notational idiosyncracy based on C.P.E. Bach’s “Versuch über die wahre Art das Clavier zu spielen” to denote a rest. This musical symbol, which was included in the first edition published during Beethoven’s lifetime, has not been addressed in any modern edition to date. In addition, a score through a chord can also not be found in previous modern editions - this denotes an arpeggiated chord./ Recueil / Violon et Piano

Beethovenâ?? supreme skill and dramatic creativity are demonstrated again in Sonata In E Flat Major For Piano Op.27 No.1 completed in 1802. In part instigated by the onset of his deafness and rejection Beethoven moved away from the traditional movement structure of the Sonata and titled each one Sonata Quasi una Fantasia (Sonata in the form of a fantasia). It is a more continuous whole the changes of tempo and mood occurring within movements and it has a more fluid approach to key thematic development and form. Written for Solo Piano Op.27 No.1 is deceptively difficult at first seeming playful and childish but becoming more formidable as itprogresses.

für zwei Hörner zwei Violinen Viola und Bass-It is hardly surprising that Beethoven did not write any more chamber music for winds after 1800. Following the change to middle-class musical culture demand declined for buoyant serenades and divertimenti intended for courtcircles a genre that Beethoven had reservations about as it was. Composed in 1795 with no known occasion in mind his Sextet op. 81b is thus all the more remarkable standing out on account of the unusual virtuosity of the hornparts. This edition is the first to provide the bass part as originally intended by Beethoven: for violoncello supported by a double bass. In addition to the original horn parts in E flat it also contains transposed parts in F.

As the title implies this two volume box set of The Art Of Beethoven provides a comprehensive guide to Beethoven's music. It is biographical only in as far as the events of Beethoven's life impinge upon his creative output.The approach to Beethoven's music is somewhat novel since these books attempt to treat the works of Beethoven in the order in which they were written as far as it is possible to establish such a chronology. The books in this way chart Beethoven's creative development as it is expressed in the continuity of his output and this method often reveals connections between works not usually associatedwith one another.There are full discussions of all the major works as well as of those which are rarely heard. Beethoven's attitudes towards structure and key relationships are fully covered as well as his handling of instruments and voices.These books also include considered judgements on the quality of the music. These books are intended for the serious music student as well as for the amateur who wishes to know more about this perennially fascinating subject.

Ludwig van Beethoven had the ability to create an entire musical universe from the most unassuming and minuscule motif. No classical composer worked more consciously with rhythm than Beethoven: his unmistakable ?drive? can be felt in every bar!Here familiar ?Beethoven themes? are merged liberated shuffled filtered and recombined with jazz harmonies standard styles and rhythms. Jean Kleeb?s arrangements sometimes closely follow the original at other times they comment on or recall Beethoven?s music from afar.
