Beethoven's Tempest Sonata (first Movement): Five Annotated Analyses for Performers and Scholars

Edited by Pieter Berge





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

This book contains five graphic analyses of the opening movement of Beethoven's sonata Op. 31/2. The analyses are based on essays published in Beethoven's Tempest Sonata: Perspectives on Analysis and Performance, edited by Pieter Berge, William E. Caplin, and Jeroen D'hoe (Leuven, 2009). While the earlier collection was conceived for an academic readership, the present volume, by contrast, is intended primarily for practical musicians. The musical score itself accordingly serves as the point of departure, with analytical remarks introduced at the moment at which the relevant music appears. In so doing, this book aims to offer performers analytical insights within the familiar context of sitting at the piano, and following the chronology of the musical process itself. Five different analytical perspectives are presented: motivic (Pieter Berge and Jeroen D'hoe); Schenkerian (Poundie Burstein); form-functional (William E. Caplin); ""sonata-theory"" (James Hepokoski); and metrical (William Rothstein). This book contains five graphic analyses of the opening movement of Beethoven's sonata Op. 31/2.
