DOWNLOAD EBOOKDutch-born cellist Johan Arnold Dahmen (1766–1812) was a principal player in Joseph Haydn’s “Salomon” orchestra in 1792 and became a well-known musician in London. His compositions included songs and choruses, string chamber music, piano sonatas, and at least one cello concerto; about forty-five items were published during his lifetime. The only extant autograph manuscript by Dahmen is held by George Mason University. It comprises three sonatas of three movements each for two cellos (or for cello with violone), works that were composed between 1794 and Dahmen’s death in 1812. The music exemplifies chamber music in classical style and form, intended for collegial, informal performance by skilled musicians in intimate surroundings, or perhaps for pedagogical use. Preparation of the edition included conjectural reconstruction of several measures in one sonata due to a tear in one leaf of the manuscript.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMainstream scholarship teaches that Beethoven's five cello sonatas follow his progression as a composer. The Op. 5 sonatas are considered to belong to the Classical tradition of keyboard domination and cello subordination, and the Op. 69 sonata is held as an important transitional work in which the cello and the piano are first treated as equals. The Op. 102 sonatas, appearing in Beethoven's increasingly chromatic and contrapuntal late period, further integrate the cello into the music making, but many scholars see the cello here as more of an independent voice than a matching partner. A closer look at the sonatas reveals a composer who was more consistent in his thinking. This document will study the relationship between the cello and the piano in each of the five cello sonatas of Ludwig van Beethoven and demonstrate that the equal treatment of both instruments, so widely praised in the Op. 69 sonata, is present in all five works.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 1796 the young Beethoven presented his first two cello sonatas, Op. 5, at the court of Frederick William II, an avid cellist and the reigning Prussian monarch. Released in print the next year, these revolutionary sonatas forever altered the cello repertoire by fundamentally redefining the relationship between the cello and the piano and promoting their parity. Beethoven continued to develop the potential of the duo partnership in his three other cello sonatas - the lyrical and heroic Op. 69 and the two experimental sonatas Op. 102, No. 1 and No. 2, transcendent compositions conceived on the threshold of the composer's late style. In Beethoven's Cello, Marc D. Moskovitz and R. Larry Todd examine these seminal cornerstones of the cello repertoire and place them within their historical and cultural contexts. Also addressed are the three variation sets and, in a series of interludes, the cellos owned by Beethoven, the changing nature of his pianos, the cello-centric 'Triple' Concerto and the arrangements for cello and piano of other works. Featuring a preface by renowned cellist Steven Isserlis and concluding with the reviews of the composer's cello music published during his lifetime, Beethoven's Cello is the ideal companion for cellists, pianists, musicologists and chamber-music devotees desiring a comprehensive understanding of this beloved repertoire. MARC D. MOSKOVITZ is principal cellist of the ProMusica Chamber Orchestra. He has recorded the music of virtuoso cellists David Popper and Alfredo Piatti for the VAI label, and his American premiere of Zemlinsky's Cello Sonata was heralded by the Washington Post as 'an impassioned performance'. Moskovitz has contributed to the New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians; and his biography, Alexander Zemlinsky: A Lyric Symphony, was published by Boydell & Brewer in 2010. Recognized as 'Mendelssohn's most authoritative biographer' (The New Yorker), R. LARRY TODD is Arts and Sciences Professor at Duke University. He is the author of Mendelssohn: A Life in Music, named Best Biography in 2003 by the Association of American Publishers, and Fanny Hensel: The Other Mendelssohn, awarded the ASCAP Nicholas Slonimsky Award for outstanding biography in music. As a pianist, he has recorded with Nancy Green the complete cello works of Mendelssohn and Fanny Hensel for JRI Recordings.
