  | | Beethoven Variations on a Life by Mark Evan Bonds Hardcover, 160 Pages, Published 2020 by Oxford University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-19-005408-3, ISBN: 0-19-005408-5 "Despite the ups and downs of his personal life and professional career-even in the face of deafness-Beethoven remained remarkably consistent in his most basic convictions about his art. This inner consistency, the music historian Mark Evan Bonds argues, provides the key to understanding the composer's life and works. Beethoven approached music as he approached life, weighing whatever occupied him from a variety of perspectives: a melodi ..." |
 | | The Beethoven Syndrome Hearing Music as Autobiography by Mark Evan Bonds Hardcover, 344 Pages, Published 2019 by Oxford University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-19-006847-9, ISBN: 0-19-006847-7 "The "Beethoven Syndrome" is the inclination of listeners to hear music as the projection of a composer's inner self. This was a radically new way of listening that emerged only after Beethoven's death.

In Absolute Music: The History of an Idea, Mark Evan Bonds traces the history of these efforts across more than two millennia, paying special attention to the relationship between music's essence and its qualities of form, expression, beauty ..." |
 | | Music as Thought(Reprint) Listening to the Symphony in the Age of Beethoven by Mark Evan Bonds Paperback, 208 Pages, Published 2015 by Princeton University Press ISBN-13: 978-0-691-16805-0, ISBN: 0-691-16805-9 "Before the nineteenth century, instrumental music was considered inferior to vocal music. Kant described wordless music as "more pleasure than culture," and Rousseau dismissed it for its inability to convey concepts. But by the early 1800s, a dramatic shift was under way. Purely instrumental music was now being hailed as a means to knowledge and embraced precisely because of its independence from the limits of language. What had once be ..." |
