String Quartets in Beethoven's Europe is the first detailed study
of string quartets in late-eighteenth- and early-nineteenth-century
Europe. It brings together the work of nine scholars who explore
little-studied aspects of this multi-faceted genre. Together, this
book's chapters deal with compositional responses to Beethoven's
string quartets and the prestige of the genre; varied compositional
practices in string quartet writing, with a particular emphasis on
texture and performance elements; and the reception of Beethoven's
string quartets ca. 1800. They include discussions of quartets
composed for the amateur and connoisseur markets in Beethoven's
Europe; virtuosity, the French Violin School, and the quatuor
brillant; the relationship between quartet composers and their
audiences during Beethoven's era; and the cross-pollination of
quartet styles in Europe's musical centers such as Vienna, Paris,
and St. Petersburg.
