Intended for the music student, the professional musician, and the
music lover, "Chamber Music: An Essential History" covers
repertoire from the Renaissance to the present, crossing genres to
include string quartets, piano trios, clarinet quintets, and other
groupings. Mark A. Radice gives a thorough overview and history of
this long-established and beloved genre, typically performed by
groups of a size to fit into spaces such as homes or churches and
tending originally toward the string and wind instruments rather
than percussion. Radice begins with chamber music's earliest
expressions in the seventeenth century, discusses its most common
elements in terms of instruments and compositional style, and then
investigates how those elements play out across several centuries
of composers- among them Mozart, Bach, Haydn, and Brahms- and
national interpretations of chamber music. While "Chamber Music: An
Essential History" is intended largely as a textbook, it will also
find an audience as a companion volume for musicologists and fans
of classical music, who may be interested in the background to a
familiar and important genre.
