Description
Ludwig van Beethoven by Jan Marisse Huizing offers a comprehensive and immersive survey of thirty-five Beethoven piano sonatas.
Beethoven’s piano sonatas are among the iconic cornerstones of the classical music repertoire. Jan Marisse Huizing provides an in-depth study of the sonatas using available autograph and first editions and nearly three hundred musical examples.
Digging into the historical background and performance practices of the piano sonatas, Huizing provides illuminating detail on various aspects of Beethoven's work. These aspects include characteristics of notation, form and content, types of touch, articulation, beaming, pedal indications, character, rubato, meter, metric constructions, metronome marks, and tempo.
