"In these studies of Beethoven's life and music, Kinderman brings together essays that will please historians, critics, and music theorists. This impressive volume is important not only to the study of the string quartets, but to how we understand Beethoven's music in general."--Christopher A. Reynolds, professor of music, University of California, Davis, "As other scholars read and digest the ideas expressed in these essays, they will be encouraged to reexamine works both by Beethoven and other composers in light of the concepts and methodologies presented here. This book is highly recommended reading for anyone interested in Beethoven's quartets, or any facet of Beethoven's music, as well as for libraries serving research and graduate programs in music history, musicology, or music theory."-- Notes, In these studies of Beethoven's life and music, Kinderman brings together essays that will please historians, critics, and music theorists.
