Book Description
In 1824, Schubert composed Octet in F Major, D.803, op. 166, for clarinet, bassoon, horn, 2 violins, viola, cello and double bass. The Octet comprises six movements and lasts approximately an hour. The work represents the pinnacle of the genre in the nineteenth century. The purpose of this dissertation is to provide important resources needed for a cohesive and informed interpretation of Schubert's Octet. The historical perspectives, which include discussion of Beethoven's influence and the genesis of the Octet, provide the context from which to discuss the Octet's musical language and performance practice. In turn, the analysis of its musical language informs the expressive opportunities as well as raises awareness to some performance considerations. The analysis focuses on Schubert's thematic and harmonic procedures, and explores the musical elements, such as the cyclic motif with which Schubert unites the piece. The dissertation also addresses revisions in the first publication, general editorial issues and discrepancies among the different editions. Finally, the dissertation concludes with an investigation of the performance practice through examination of recordings, and research into the nineteenth-century performance practice.

Book Description
In Chamber Music: An Extensive Guide for Listeners,Lucy Miller Murray transforms her decades of program notes for some of the world’s most distinguished artists and presenters into the go-to guide for the chamber music novice and enthusiast. Offering practical information on the broad array of chamber music works from the Classical, Romantic, and Modern periods—and an artful selection from the Baroque period of Johann Sebastian Bach’s works—Chamber Music: An Extensive Guide for Listeners is both the perfect reference resource and chamber music primer for listeners. Covering over 500 works, Murray surveys in clear and simple language the historical and musical impact of some 130 composers—20 of them living. Notably, Chamber Music includes the complete string quartets of Beethoven, Bartok, and Shostakovich, as well as 35 piano trios of Haydn. It also provides critical information and assessments of works by composers not nearly so well known, both past and present. Entries appear in alphabetical order by composer, and, in every instance, give a brief introduction to the composer’s life and work. Of particular interest are the brief spotlight contributions, from well-known figures in the chamber music world, who focus on the performance experience or offer special knowledge of the works. This work is an ideal introduction and reference for students and scholars, new listeners, and enthusiasts of the chamber music tradition in Western music. Special contributors include: ·Charles Abramovic ·James Bonn ·Michael Brown ·Eugene Drucker ·James Dunham ·Daniel Epstein ·Ralph Evans ·Jeremy Gill ·Jake Heggie ·Paul Katz ·Bert Lucarelli ·Stuart Malina ·Robert Martin ·Peter Orth ·Jann Pasler ·Susan Salm ·David Shifrin ·Peter Sirotin/Ya-Ting Chang ·Arnold Steinhardt ·Kenneth Woods ·David Yang Phillip Ying
