This 1999 book provides an accessible introduction to the Sonatas Opp. 27 and 31 (including The 'Moonlight' and 'The Tempest'), aimed at pianists, students, and music lovers. It begins with the works' historical background - the emergence of a 'piano culture' at the end of the eighteenth century, Beethoven's aristocratic milieu in Vienna, and his oft-quoted intention to follow a new compositional path. An account of the sonatas' genesis is followed by a discussion of their reception history, including a survey of changing performing styles since the mid-nineteenth century. The concept of the Sonata quasi una Fantasia is examined in relation to the cult of artistic sensibility in early-nineteenth-century Vienna. The study concludes with a critical introduction to each sonata. 410 0$aCambridge music handbooks. 517 3 $aBeethoven: The 'Moonlight' & other Sonatas, Op. 27 & Op. 31 606 $aSonatas (Piano)$xAnalysis, appreciation 615 0$aSonatas (Piano)$xAnalysis, appreciation. 676 $a786.2/183 700 $aJones$b Timothy$cDr,$0791930 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455357203321 996 $aBeethoven, the Moonlight and other sonatas, op. 27 and op. 31$91770692 997 $aUNINA
