The seven concertos of Beethoven - Antony Hopkins

In this book on the concertos of Beethoven, Antony Hopkins explores in detail all seven works. Intended to be a companion volume to the reprint of his Nine Symphonies of Beethoven, it is a lucid but non-technical analysis written in his characteristically accessible style - lively and entertaining with a deep perception of Beethoven?s creative processes. Composer, conductor and pianist himself, Antony Hopkins is uniquely placed to share with the reader his view of these works. - - The general introduction he provides in his Concertgoer?s Companion is expanded in this more detailed study which, with its many musical examples provides a welcome and refreshing exploration of seven of Beethoven?s finest and best-loved compositions.
