Sociability, Reception, and Canon Formation
by Nancy November
Early nineteenth-century composers, publishers and writers evolved
influential ideals of Beethoven's symphonies as untouchable
masterpieces. Meanwhile, many and various arrangements of symphonies,
principally for amateur performers, supported diverse and 'hands-on'
cultivation of the same works. Now mostly forgotten, these arrangements
served a vital function in nineteenth-century musical life, extending
works' meanings and reach, especially to women in the home. This book
places domestic music-making back into the history of the classical
symphony. It investigates a largely untapped wealth of early
nineteenth-century arrangements of symphonies by Beethoven - for piano,
string quartet, mixed quintet and other ensembles. The study focuses on
three key agents in the nineteenth-century culture of musical
arrangement: arrangers, publishers and performers. It investigates
significant functions of those musical arrangements in the era:
sociability, reception and canon formation. The volume also explores how
conceptions of Beethoven's symphonies, and their arrangement, changed
across the era with changing conception of musical works.
