Published in Sophr's 200th anniversary year, this book deals at length with both the life and the works of a composer who exerted a potent influence on the development of nineteenth-century music. Spohr was hailed in his own day as a worthy successor to Mozart and Beethoven, yet in the present century his former renown has gone largely unrecognised. Clive Brown gives an account of Spohr's compositions sympathetically but critically and provides a stylistic and aesthetic assessment of his output. The chronological account of Spohr's life unfolds in parallel with the description of his works ; a final chapter considers the decline of his reputation after his death. This volume will be of interest not only to scholars and students but also to general music readers. And since so little of Spohr's very substantial output is available in modern editions and is seldom performed, the book will also be useful to practical musicians in search of unfamiliar and worthwhile music for performance.
