The string quartets of Ludwig van Beethoven, the signal achievement
of "that noble genre," have rewarded the engagement of scholars,
performers, and audiences for almost two hundred years. This book
and its accompanying recording invite you to experience three of
these profound and beautiful works of music from the inside, with a
leading Beethoven scholar and a premier performing ensemble as your
guides. Lewis Lockwood provides historical and biographical
background along with musical analysis, drawing on the most
important insights of recent scholarship on Beethoven's life and
works. The members of the Juilliard Quartet share the fruits of
decades of performing and teaching these compositions through
annotated scores and recordings of the first movements of three
representative quartets, including the rarely heard original
version of opus 18 no. 1. And all parties join in lively and
illuminating conversations that range from details of bowing and
articulation to Beethoven's development as a composer to the social
history of the nineteenth century. "Inside Beethoven's Quartets"
illustrates how scholarly knowledge can inform a performance, as
well as how performers' interpretive choices can illuminate this
sublime music.
