"Hatten s interpretations are at times surprisingly poetic in
their expression.... In his book he effectively creates an
interaction between aspects of music theory, analysis, aesthetics
and semiotics. His work yields some novel insights that deserve
careful consideration from anyone in these fields." The Semiotic
Review of Books
Musical Meaning in Beethoven offers a fresh approach to the
problem of expressive meaning in music. Beginning with a
provocative analysis of the slow movement of the Hammerklavier
piano sonata, Robert S. Hatten examines the roles of markedness,
Classical topics, expressive genres, and musical tropes in
fostering expressive interpretation at all levels of structure.
Close readings of movements from Beethoven s late piano sonatas and
string quartets highlight less obvious expressive meanings and
explain how more familiar stylistic meanings are consistently cued
from one work to the next. Co-recipient of the 1997 Wallace Berry
Publication Award from the Society for Music Theory.
