Clive, Peter - Beethoven and His World

Following the author's acclaimed biographical dictionaries on Schubert and Mozart, Peter Clive here examines Beethoven's relations with the multitude of persons who formed his circle: relatives, friends, acquaintances, librettists, poets, publishers, artists, patrons, and musicians. With over 450 entries, this volume is the most comprehensive and up-to-date survey of the subject currently available in any language. It will appeal to all music lovers, both the scholar and the non-specialist alike.
