Reviews
'Its main strength is the way that it manages to cover Beethoven's output from such varied perspectives.' Early Music Review
' ... a notable addition to the bibliography of the composer, using the researches of writers who are specialists in their field.' Classical Music
' ... works well on several levels, both as an introduction to those who are hungry for more detailed knowledge and for those who are more familiar with the music and the debates surrounding it. Every chapter offers genuine food for thought.' W. Dean Sutcliffe, International Record Review
'This handsomely produced new study of Beethoven is certainly a notable addition to the bibliography of the composer.' Terry Barfoot, Classical Music
'... a splendidly comprehensive work.' Expository Times
