About this Item

Neuware - Beethoven's nine symphonies, composed over a period of around 25 years between 1799 and 1824, were already regarded as his musical legacy soon after his death. The composer explores the entire spectrum of the genre, finding in each work new solutions for the fundamental problem of how to find the right balance between motivic unity and distinctive characters for each movement. What proved pioneering was how he made the symphony a prolific vehicle for developing musical ideas, ranging from the heroic, the sublime, or the emotions of country life, culminating in the appeal to fraternity in the choral finale to the Ninth. Now Beethoven's symphonies are available in nine handy study editions, based on the musical text of reference from the Beethoven Complete Edition and collected in a practical slipcase. A wonderful gift for every devotee of the great Viennese master, at an attractive price!; Les neuf symphonies de Beethoven, composées au cours d'une période de 25 ans, entre 1799 et 1824, étaient déjà considérées très peu de temps après sa mort comme son testament musical. Le compositeur avait exploré le spectre entier du genre, pour trouver dans chaque oeuvre de nouvelles solutions au problème fondamental du lien à établir entre les différents caractères exprimés dans chaque mouvement, d'une part, et l'unité motivique du tout, d'autre part. Et il ne fallut pas longtemps pour s'apercevoir de la pertinence qu'il y avait à considérer la symphonie comme étant fertile à porter des idéaux - telles que l'héroïsme, la noblesse ou les sentiments de la vie rurale, jusqu'à l'appel à la fraternité dans le Finale choral de la Neuvième. Les symphonies de Beethoven, sur la base du texte musical de référence de l'édition complète des oeuvres de Beethoven et pourvues de nouvelles préfaces, sont présentées ici dans un coffret pratique comprenant neuf éditions d'étude très maniables. Une idée de cadeau merveilleuse pour tout admirateur du grand maître viennois, à un prix attractif!; Beethovens neun Symphonien, die in einem Zeitraum von rund 25 Jahren zwischen 1799 und 1824 entstanden, galten schon bald nach seinem Tod als sein musikalisches Vermächtnis. Der Komponist lotete das gesamte Spektrum der Gattung aus und fand in jedem Werk neue Lösungen für das Grundproblem, wie zwischen ausgeprägten Satzcharakteren und motivischer Einheitlichkeit zu vermitteln sei. Als wegweisend erwies sich nicht zuletzt, die Symphonie als Ideenträger - sei es für das Heroische, das Erhabene oder die Empfindungen des Landlebens - fruchtbar zu machen bis hin zum Appell der Brüderlichkeit im Chorfinale der Neunten. Beethovens Symphonien liegen nun, auf dem Referenz-Notentext der Beethoven-Gesamtausgabe basierend und mit neuen Vorworten versehen, im praktischen Schuber mit neun handlichen Studien-Editionen vor. Eine wunderbare Geschenkidee für jeden Verehrer des großen Wiener Meisters zu einem attraktiven Preis!
