Archive zahlreicher österreichischer und tschechischer Klöster beherbergen heute einige der wertvollsten Abschriften von Instrumentalwerken Wagenseils, J. Haydns, Vanhals und Ditters. Dieses Vermächtnis ist größtenteils das Resultat eines in den 1750er Jahren aufkommenden Trends, dessen von Wien ausgehende Breitenwirkung bislang unterschätzt wurde. Christiane Maria Hornbachner nimmt aus musikgeschichtlicher Perspektive seine Akteure in den Blick: Klostervorsteher, Mönche, Komponisten und Musikalienhändler agierten im Spannungsfeld zwischen Kooperation und Wettbewerb sowie ausgeklügelter Planung und glücklichem Zufall - und schufen so einen musikalischen Nachlass, dessen Entstehungsgeschichte voller Geheimnisse steckt.

This book is a philosophical tour through the experience of beauty: what it is, and how the composer, performer, and listener all contribute. It explores - with insight, patience, and humor - profound issues at the essence of our experience. A student performance of Beethoven's String Quartet No. 10 in E-Flat Major, known as the 'Harp,' serves as a point of departure and a recurring theme. For the layperson the core of the book is five dialogues between Icarus, an inquiring student intensely concerned with fulfilling his highest potential as a musician, and Daedalus, a curmudgeonly, iconoclastic teacher who guides Icarus's search. Three technical articles, geared to the music professional and academic, treat the issues in greater depth. Supplementary online audio files and musical examples. Markand Thakar is Charles A. & Carolyn M. Russell Music Director, Duluth Superior Symphony Orchestra; music director, Baltimore Chamber Orchestra; principal conductor, Duluth Festival Opera; and codirector of the graduate conducting program, Peabody Conservatory of the Johns Hopkins University.

This book is the first detailed contextual study of string quartets in Beethoven's Vienna, at a time when that genre reigned supreme among the different chamber genres. Focusing on a key transition period in the early nineteenth century, which bore witness to fundamental shifts in the 'private' sphere of music-making, it explores the 'cultivation' of string quartets by composers, critics, listeners, performers, publishers and patrons. The book highlights these parties' interactions, ideas and ideals, which were central to defining the unique cultures of chamber music arising at this time. We gain fresh insights into publishing and marketing, performance venues and practices, review culture, listening theories and practices, and composition in early nineteenth-century Vienna. Until now, the unique theatricality of chamber music, and the 'social' nature of its discourse, has been poorly appreciated. Cultivating String Quartets in Beethoven's Vienna addresses this misconception and enriches our understanding of this crucial period of change, in which concert life began and previously 'private' music was moved out onto the stage.
