This permission covers only single copies made for study purposes,subject to normal conditions of acknowledgement iii Abstract Most performances of Classical-period keyboard music today are given on the modem piano. However, the understanding of the sound-differences between the modem piano and the instrument for which this music was composed will most probably reveal that some features of Classical music can be problematical on our present-day instrument. This study will present the main differences between early and modem pianos and will focus on certain aspects of performance practice of the music under discussion, including articulation, dynamics, pedalling and timbre relationships that can prove challenging when transferred on to the modem piano. It will analyse their role and significance, and will demonstrate how they are affected by the changes that have been applied to the piano in the last two centuries. This dissertation will also attempt to suggest possible solutions for the modem player whose aim is, as much as possible, to maintain the style and project the right spirit of the music on the present-day instrument. iv List of figures 1.

Historical issues A modern pianist, on playing the fortepiano for the first time, will probably be astonished: the instrument that Mozart and Beethoven composed for is remarkably different in touch and sound from the instrument to which we are accustomedtoday, and music, when played on it, sounds remarkably different from when it is played on a modem instrument. Alfred Brendel asserts,`[W]e have to resign ourselvesto the fact that whenever we hear Beethoven on a present-dayinstrument, we are listening to a sort of transcription'. ' Yet, it is the modem piano on which this music is most often played, and indeed,Brendel prefers this instrument: The has demanded by modern concert grand ... not only the volume of tone modern orchestras, concert halls and ears; it also - and of this I am deeply better convinced - does justice to most of Beethoven's piano works than the Hammerklavier [fortepiano]: its tone is far more colourful, orchestral, and rich in contrast, and these qualities do matter in Beethoven, as can be seen from his orchestraland chambermusic. 2 Frederick Neumann offers similar views concerning the performanceof Mozart's works, claiming that `[When this music is] played by a fine artist on the modern piano [it] offers 1 Alfred Brendel, Musical Thoughtsand Afterthoughts (London: RobsonBooks, 1976),p. 16. 2 Ibid, p. 16. vi an artistic experiencethat to a listener with an open mind will convey the spirit of the work with greaterimmediacy, power, and intensity.'3 On the other hand, one of the leading fortepianists of our time, Malcolm Bilson, has frequently affirmed the `unsuitability'

    THE EVOLUTION OF THE BROADWOOD GRAND PIANO 1785-1998 by Alastair Laurence DPhil. University of York Department of Music September 1998 Broadwood Grand Piano of 1801 (Finchcocks Collection, Goudhurst, Kent) Abstract: The Evolution of the Broadwood Grand Piano, 1785-1998 This dissertation describes the way in which one company's product - the grand piano - evolved over a period of two hundred and thirteen years. The account begins by tracing the origins of the English grand, then proceeds with a description of the earliest surviving models by Broadwood, dating from the late eighteenth century. Next follows an examination of John Broadwood and Sons' piano production methods in London during the early nineteenth century, and the transition from small-scale workshop to large factory is noted. The dissertation then proceeds to record in detail the many small changes to grand design which took place as the nineteenth century progressed, ranging from the extension of the keyboard compass, to the introduction of novel technical features such as the famous Broadwood barless steel frame. The dissertation concludes by charting the survival of the Broadwood grand piano since 1914, and records the numerous difficulties which have faced the long-established company during the present century. The unique feature of this dissertation is the way in which much of the information it contains has been collected as a result of the writer's own practical involvement in piano making, tuning and restoring over a period of thirty years; he has had the opportunity to examine many different kinds of Broadwood grand from a variety of historical periods.

  • Ludwig Van Beethoven: Triumph Over a Life of Tragedy
    Ludwig van Beethoven: Triumph Over a Life of Tragedy Madeline Brashaw Senior Division Historical Paper Paper Length: 2,448 words “It seemed unthinkable for me to leave the world forever before I had produced all that I felt Heiligenstadt Testament called upon to produce,” Ludwig van Beethoven wrote in ​ ​ shortly before he passed away. Ludwig van Beethoven practiced music his entire life. He told people that he did not know what he would do without music. Beethoven was brought up during the Classical Period which was defined and determined by its clear characteristics such as its emphasis on beauty, elegance, and balance, and by the variety and contrast within the musical pieces. It is said that his music altered the course of musical history and that it modified the Classical Period (Classical Music). Sadly, Beethoven’s career came to a halt when he began to lose his hearing, and it became nearly impossible for him to compose and conduct his works. The tragic loss of Beethoven’s hearing led to his triumph in changing musical history. Beethoven was brought into this world in December of 1770. As a child, Ludwig van Beethoven often had a sad life. He had no friends and had nobody to care for him. The one thing that he did have, and he used almost every day, was his music. Beethoven’s main instruments were the piano and the violin. As a child, he even composed his own music at times. His father, Johann van Beethoven, was young Beethoven’s first music teacher. As a child, his father harshly pushed him in his musical studies.

  • Robert Levin Selected Reviews
    Robert Levin Selected Reviews Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 3 Scottish Chamber Orchestra (November 2017) “Playing along quietly in the normally orchestra-only exposition, adding in his own improvised lead-ins and interruptions, pedalling freely, stretching rhythms and inserting impromptu melodic embellishments, he treated what we normally hear as nothing more than the Concerto’s bare bones, a framework for spontaneous, in-the-moment creation – all backed up by serious historical scholarship, of course. The result was edge-of-your-seat stuff, sometimes raising a smile, often raising eyebrows, but carried through with utter conviction and brilliant, sometimes rather hard-edged clarity. Most captivating, though, was the breathtaking immediacy of Levin’s account, and its disarming honesty – maybe this’ll work, maybe not, he seemed to say, but we’ll do it anyway.” – David Kettle, The Scotsman **** “Robert Levin, who has just celebrated his 70th birthday, brought his renowned erudition to the solo part, as well as the flair of his own improvised cadenzas, always staying clearly within the embrace of Beethoven’s own themes.” – Keith Bruce, The Herald **** Alte Oper Recital Mozart Saal, Frankfurt (May 2017) “Erfolgreich Musik machen und erfolgreich über sie reden können wenige. Ein solcher Universalkünstler, bekannt auch als Vollender berühmter Fragmente wie etwa Mozarts Requiem, ist der Pianist Robert Levin.” – Gerhard Schroth, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Hilary Hahn Recitals European and US Tour (March 2017) “A Mozart sonata, K. 481, followed. Again it was Levin whose dynamism collared our ears… it was clear that our musicians were enjoying a conversation. …Levin’s solo turn followed in Hans Peter Türk’s Träume , another welcome UK premiere.

  • Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Ludwig Van Beethoven Franz Schubert
    Die Frage, wie kommt Riedlingen an zwei so hochkarätige Solisten für die doch kleinen Galeriekonzerte, muss beantwortet werden. Zentrale Stelle ist Prof. Dr. Edward Swen- son (USA), der schon wiederholt in Riedlingen war und mit seinem Vortrag „Conrad Graf und seine Kundschaft in Europa“ die Besucher begeisterte. Begleitet wurde er damals von Stefania Neonato, die sich aus der Zeit bei Malcolm Bilson an der Ithaca Universität kannten. Prof. Malcolm Bilson, der sich auf einer Europareise befindet und. in Wien und Budapest konzertiert, konnte für die Idee gewonnen werden, zusammen mit Stefania Neonato in der Geburtsstadt des Conrad Graf auf einem Original- Instrument zu konzertieren. Die beiden Künstler stellten speziell für Riedlingen und den vorhandenen Hammerflügel ein fulminantes Konzert - Programm für zwei- und vier Hände zusammen. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Bei allem Bemühen kann man zwischen Mozart und Riedlingen keine Verbindungen nachweisen. Mozart gehört zu den Pionieren der vierhändigen Klavierkomposition; die Anregung dazu erhielt er zweifellos durch das gemeinsame Musizieren mit seiner Schwester am Cembalo. Bereits als Neunjähriger schreibt Mozart Stücke für sich und seine fünf Jahre ältere Schwester und er gilt weithin als Erfinder dieser Gattung – auch wenn tatsächlich schon Komponisten vor ihm, etwa Johann Christian Bach, sich diesem Genre widmeten. Die B-Dur Sonate KV 358 zählt zu den ersten nachweisbaren echten Werken Mozarts für Klavier vierhändig. (Anja Renczikowski) Ludwig van Beethoven Gegen Ende 1825 hat Conrad Graf Beethoven leihweise einen vierchörigen Flügel zur Verfügung gestellt. Nach Beethovens Tod hat Graf sein Instrument wieder zurückgenommen und später verkauft (heute im Beethovenhaus Bonn). Vielleicht hat Beethoven für die Überlassung seines Flügels Graf insofern gedankt, als er ihm das Autograph seiner Klaviersonate in e-Moll, Op.

Ludwig van Beethoven was born here in Decem­ ber 1770. Since 1889 the Beethoven­Haus Society has maintained a commemorative museum in the birthplace, which today houses the world’s largest Beethoven collection. The exhibition rooms contain a selection of more than 150 original documents from the time Beethoven spent in Bonn and Vienna. The hi­ storical building adjoining on the right (the white rear building), in which Beethoven’s christening was once celebrated, has since 2004 accommodated the “Digital Beethoven­Haus”. Modern methods of presentation lead the visitor on a journey of exploration through Beethoven’s life and work (Studio of Digital Archives).
