Heinrich Schenker ranks among the most important figures in the
development of western music theory in the twentieth century. His
approach to the analysis of music permeates nearly every aspect of
the field and continues to this day to be a topic of great interest
among music theorists, historians, composers and performers. In his
four volume work, Die letzen Sonaten von Beethoven: Kritische
Ausgabe mit Einfuhrung und Erlauterung (The Last Piano Sonatas by
Beethoven: Critical edition with Introduction and Commentary)
Schenker presented editions of Beethoven's Opp. 109, 110, 111 and
101 that were, at the time, unprecedented in their faithfulness to
such authoritative sources as Beethoven's autograph manuscripts. He
included a movement-by-movement and section-by-section discussion
of form and content that grew increasingly penetrating from one
volume to the next as the musical theory for which he is now known
was developed, alongside inspired and detailed suggestions for the
performance of each section of each work. In Beethoven's Last Piano
Sonatas: An Edition, with Elucidation, noted Schenker scholar John
Rothgeb presents the first English language edition and translation
of these important works. Rothgeb builds upon Schenker's text,
adding explanations of certain points in the commentary, references
to corrections and other remarks entered by Schenker in his
personal copies of the volumes, and graphic presentations of
several passages (a practice that became standard in Schenker's own
analytical work later in his career). Making these seminal works
accessible to English speaking scholars and students for the first
time, Beethoven's Last Piano Sonatas is an essential reference for
music theorists, historians, performers, and composers alike.
