Combining musical insight with the most recent research, William
Kinderman's Beethoven is both a richly drawn portrait of the man and a
guide to his music. Kinderman traces the composer's intellectual and
musical development from the early works written in Bonn to the Ninth
Symphony and the late quartets, looking at compositions from different
and original perspectives that show Beethoven's art as a union of
sensuous and rational, of expression and structure. In analyses of
individual pieces, Kinderman shows that the deepening of Beethoven's
musical thought was a continuous process over decades of his life.
