dbo:abstract
  • L' estil musical de Ludwig van Beethoven s'inicia en el context del Classicisme i culmina en el Romanticisme. Beethoven se'l reconeix com una de les figures més influents en la història de música clàssica. Ja en vida, fou "acceptat com el compositor viu més important", i la seva música ha quedat entre les més interpretades, discutides i revisades. Les revistes especialitzades dediquen articles a l'anàlisi de la seva biografia i la seva obra. Ha estat tema de nombroses monografies i biografies, i la seva música és un referent en el desenvolupament de l'anàlisi schenkerià. Juntament amb Bach i Mozart, destaca d'entre la resta de compositors i la seva música probablement és la més enregistrada. Les innovacions estilístiques de Beethoven fan de pont entre els períodes clàssic i romàntic. Les obres del seu període primerenc van portar la forma clàssica al seu nivell expressiu més elevat, expandint a nivell formal, estructural i harmònic el desenvolupament musical dels seus predecessors, entre els quals destaquen Mozart i Haydn. Les obres del seu període mitjà representen més que un pas endavant, ja que contribuïren a crear les bases del llenguatge musical i del pensament del que es denominaria Romanticisme musical. Va ser font d'inspiració de compositors com Franz Schubert, Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner i Johannes Brahms, entre molts d'altres. Les seves obres del període tardà van caracteritzar-se per l'experimentació formal, harmònica i estructural al nivell més elevat, sovint, assolint tendències contrapuntístiques i textures microscòpiques, així com un plantejament compositiu més introvertit. Tot i ser un precursor del Romanticisme musical, Beethoven mai va abandonar els paradigmes formals i la filosofia que caracteritza el Classicisme musical, com compositors posteriors de la importància de Berlioz o Schubert.

  • Ludwig van Beethoven is one of the most influential figures in the history of classical music. Since his lifetime, when he was "universally accepted as the greatest living composer", Beethoven's music has remained among the most performed, discussed and reviewed in the Western world. Scholarly journals are devoted to analysis of his life and work. He has been the subject of numerous biographies and monographs, and his music was the driving force behind the development of Schenkerian analysis. He is widely considered as among the most important composers, and along with Bach and Mozart, his music is the most frequently recorded. Beethoven expanded the formal and emotional scope – not to mention length – of nearly every genre in which he wrote. While he is most famous for his heightening of the symphonic form, Beethoven also had a dramatic influence on the piano sonata, violin sonata, string quartet and piano concerto, among several others. Only in the realm of vocal composition – opera and the mass – was his effect on later generations muted. Beethoven's stylistic innovations bridge the Classical and Romantic periods. The works of his early period brought the Classical form to its highest expressive level, expanding in formal, structural, and harmonic terms the musical idiom developed by predecessors such as Mozart and Haydn. The works of his middle period were more forward-looking, contributing to the musical language and thinking of the Romantic era, inspiring composers such as Franz Schubert, Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, Richard Wagner, and Johannes Brahms. His late period works were characterized by formal, harmonic, and structural experimentation at the highest level, often pointing toward contrapuntal tendencies and microscopic textures, as well as an increasingly introverted compositional outlook. Though rightly credited as a major harbinger of the Romantic era in music that followed, Beethoven never fully abandoned the fundamental formal paradigms and generally objective artistic philosophy characterizing musical Classicism to the same extent that later composers such as Berlioz or even Schubert did.
