On the Performance of Beethoven`s Symphonies: and Other Essays
This volume contains English translations of three important literary works of the conductor Felix Weingartner (1863-1942). The title essay is a detailed account of specific performing difficulties and questions of interpretation in each of the nine symphonies, a comprehensive treatment that will be indispensable to music students. Also included are "On Conducting" and "The Symphony Since Beethoven," both of which attest to Weingartner`s belief that art is at its best when an "exceedingly delicate balance is attained between the feeling and the intellect." Weingartner`s wealth of observations on music and musicians makes fascinating reading for anyone interested in music. Unabridged republication of the 1969
