Beethoven's Fourth Symphony: Comparative Analysis of Recorded Performances, Pp
BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School Of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Mark Christopher Ferraguto August 2012 © 2012 Mark Christopher Ferraguto BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY Mark Christopher Ferraguto, PhD Cornell University 2012 Despite its established place in the orchestral repertory, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4 in B-flat, op. 60, has long challenged critics. Lacking titles and other extramusical signifiers, it posed a problem for nineteenth-century critics espousing programmatic modes of analysis; more recently, its aesthetic has been viewed as incongruent with that of the “heroic style,” the paradigm most strongly associated with Beethoven’s voice as a composer. Applying various methodologies, this study argues for a more complex view of the symphony’s aesthetic and cultural significance. Chapter I surveys the reception of the Fourth from its premiere to the present day, arguing that the symphony’s modern reputation emerged as a result of later nineteenth-century readings and misreadings. While the Fourth had a profound impact on Schumann, Berlioz, and Mendelssohn, it elicited more conflicted responses—including aporia and disavowal—from critics ranging from A. B. Marx to J. W. N. Sullivan and beyond. Recent scholarship on previously neglected works and genres has opened up new perspectives on Beethoven’s music, allowing for a fresh appreciation of the Fourth. Haydn’s legacy in 1805–6 provides the background for Chapter II, a study of Beethoven’s engagement with the Haydn–Mozart tradition. -

The composer spent the first two decades of his life here, became a professional musician in this city and absorbed here the impulses and ideas of the Enlightenment that shaped his later creative output, too. To this extent, it is logical that Bonn is preparing to celebrate Beethoven with a kind of “Cultural Capital Year” to mark his 250th birthday. In this special year, opportunities have been cre- ated in abundance to engage with the “great mogul,” as Haydn called him. There is still more to be discovered in his music, as in his life, too. In this sense, a symposium that approaches the phenomenon of Beethoven from the music-medicine perspective represents an additional and necessary enrichment of the anni- versary year. When I began my tenure as artistic director of the Beethoven- feste Bonn in 2014, I set out to bring forth something that was always new, special and interdisciplinary. -

At the Intersection of Public and Private Musical Life: Brahms’s Op. 51 String Quartets1 Marie Sumner Lott (Georgia State University) ABSTRACT: Brahms’s dedication of his Op. 51 string quartets (1873) to surgeon Theodor Billroth provides a window into Brahms’s music-political views in the 1870s that has heretofore been unexplored by music scholars. Analysis of correspondence, performance traditions, and the scores of these two quartets demonstrates that Brahms chose to align himself and his works with the learned connoisseurs of the domestic chamber-music making tradition, represented by Billroth and his frequent musical soirées. Brahms’s music also shows the influence of Joseph Joachim, his oldest and dearest friend and Europe’s premiere chamber musician. Brahms’s compositional choices in these two works combine public and private musical styles, to offer a touching memorial to earlier composers and friends, and to provide a teachable moment for the musical public. -
Folk Music'' and ''Art Music'
This page intentionally left blank The Invention of ‘‘Folk Music’’ and ‘‘Art Music’’ We tend to take for granted the labels we put to different forms of music. This study considers the origins and implications of the way in which we categorize music today. Whereas earlier ways of classifying music were based on its different functions, for the past two hundred years we have been obsessed with creativity and musical orgins, and classify music along these lines. Matthew Gelbart argues that folk music and art music became meaningful concepts only in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and only in relation to each other. He examines how cultural nationalists motivated the earliest classification of music by origins, and how the notions of folk music and art music followed – in conjunction with changing conceptions of nature, and changing ideas about human creativity. Through tracing the history of these musical categories, the book confronts our assumptions about different kinds of music today. matthew gelbart teaches in the Music Department at Boston College, Massachusetts. His work has been published in the Journal of the Royal Music Association. This is his first book. New perspectives in music history and criticism general editors: jeffrey kallberg, anthony newcomb and ruth solie This series explores the conceptual frameworks that shape or have shaped the ways in which we understand music and its history, and aims to elaborate structures of explanation, interpretation, commentary, and criticism which make music intelligible and which provide a basis for argument about judgements of value. The intellectual scope of the series is broad. -

Figure 9 Notice announcing the publication of the Trauer-Gesang bey Beethoven's Leichenbegangnisse, i.e., Miserere/Amplius — Equali 1 and 3. (Wiener Zeitung, 21 June 1827). The vocal versions of all three equali were soon reprinted elsewhere in Europe. Alexandre Choron published the Miserere and Amplius (Equali 1 and 3) in Paris in 1828; for four voices and piano (or organ), Choron's version disposes with the trombones and the German text (Figure 11). In November 1830 an arrangement of Seyfried's arrangement of the Miserere and Amplius was published with English texts in London in the Harmonicon (Figure 12); this edition was accompanied by an abridged (and rather faulty) translation of Seyfried's description of Beethoven's funeral." Already a few months earlier, in August 1830, the Harmonicon had published Du, dem nie im Leben (re-engraved on two staves) underlaid with Grillparzer's German text, with an appended English translation."

Salieri and Schubert's Early Opinion of Beethoven
Writing Under the Influence?: Salieri and Schubert's Early Opinion of Beethoven Christopher H. Gibbs To Ludwig van Beethoven From his worshipper and admirer Franz Schubert In 1822, Schubert dedicated his Variations on a French Theme for Piano Four-Hands, Op. 10 (D624) to Beethoven. This dedication was his most public and extravagant proclamation of an abiding reverence for the older master that he held until his dying day. Indeed, if Ferdinand Schubert is to be believed, his younger brother's last wish was to be buried near Beethoven, which is exactly what happened (Deutsch 1946:825). A lifelong devotion is implied in Schubert's letters' and plainly stated in the recollections of fam ily and friends. 2 The impress and challenge of Beethoven's music on Schubert's is also apparent from the start of his compositional career, and only intensified, I believe, as he matured and engaged with it ever more directly.3 Beyond purely compositional matters, Schubert modeled his pro fessional career on Beethoven's in crucial respects and benefited from his relations with many of the same performers, publishers, patrons, and crit ics who were involved with the older composer (Solomon 1979a; Gingerich 1996; Gibbs 2000). Contemporaries frequently made comparisons between their compositions; as we shall see, critics usually mentioned Beethoven when reviewing Schubert's piano and chamber works.4 While these circumstances are unsurprising-Beethoven was, after all, the preeminent composer of the time and the two men lived in the same city throughout Schubert's life-there is one sour note: Schubert's alleged hostility, early in his career, to Beethoven's music. -

The Piano and Wind Quintets of Mozart and Beethoven: Reception and Relationship
The Piano and Wind Quintets of Mozart and Beethoven: Reception and Relationship D.M.A. Document Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Roberta Zajkowski, B.M., M.M. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2010 Document Committee: Bruce Henniss, Advisor Timothy Leasure Russel Mikkelson Lois Rosow Copyright by Roberta Zajkowski 2010 Abstract The unusual instrumentation of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Quintet, K. 452, and Ludwig van Beethoven’s Quintet, op. 16, has led many scholars to consider these two works together. Recent scholarship, however, has shed new light on the history of these two works and their relationship to one another. The evidence will show that while Beethoven almost certainly based his Quintet on Mozart’s Quintet, the true relationship between the two is more complicated than scholars used to think. Moreover, recent scholarship has argued for the canonic status of Mozart's Quintet and the intrinsic worth of Beethoven's. ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Bruce Henniss, for his guidance and encouragement throughout this degree. I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to study with you these past three years. I would also like to express my appreciation to my committee members: Timothy Leasure, Russel Mikkelson, and Lois Rosow. Special thanks go to Dr. Rosow for her assistance with this document. I greatly appreciate your careful editing and the hours you invested in my work. You helped me create a polished product that I am proud of. -
Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung (1863-1882) Répertoire International De La Presse Musicale (
Copyright © 1995 RIPM Consortium Ltd Introduction to: Karl Kügle, Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung (1863-1882) Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung (1863-1882) Series Two and Series Three The Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung (AmZ) was published weekly in Leipzig in three distinct series: the first from 3 October 1798 to 27 December 1848, the second from 1 January 1863 to 27 December 1865, and the third from 3 January 1866 to 27 December 1882. 1 Series one and two were published by Breitkopf und Hartel, the third by J. Rieter Biedermann. The present publication deals with series two and three. Individual issues of series two and three generally consisted of eight two-column pages. From 1866 to 1870, the journal's pages were numbered; at all other times, the columns alone were numbered. On occasion, an issue could swell to as many as thirty-four pages (sixty-eight columns). Such increases in size resulted at times from a temporary expansion of the journal's advertising section, at times from a proliferation of articles. Each issue of the AmZ is laid out in a consistent manner. The journal opens with a large scale essay or review, or, one or more shorter articles on historical and contemporary topics. These articles deal, for example, with first performances of new operas or instrumental compositions, and a variety of historical, aesthetic and philosophical topics; large compositions or books are at times treated in an ongoing series. Following the major articles are review columns dealing with newly published music and books about music.
