Beethoven and His World
註釋'Clive has done extremely well to separate fact from fiction on so many topics where there is contradictory information in the existing literature. The book is surely destined to become a standard reference work on Beethoven's associates for many years.' -Barry Cooper, Music and Letters'An extremely valuable account of everyone who is known to have had significant contacts with Beethoven. Clive's latest work is impressive in its wide range of subjects, its extensive bibliography, the amount of detail given for each individual, its incorporation of up-to-date scholarship, and its high level of accuracy.' -Barry Cooper, Music and Letters'This will be an extremely useful contribution to the literature and is well worth publishing, like Clive's similar books on Mozart and Schubert.' -Barry CooperFollowing the author's acclaimed biographical dictionaries on Schubert and Mozart, Peter Clive here examines Beethoven's relations with the multitude of persons who formed his circle: relatives, friends, acquaintances, librettists, poets, publishers, artists, patrons, and musicians. With over 450 entries, this volume is the most comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the subject currently available in any language. It will appeal to all music lovers, both the scholar and the non-specialist alike.
