Beethoven's Symphonies Arranged for the Chamber Sociability, Reception, and Canon Formation

Classical symphonies are often considered as works for full orchestra, demanding fidelity to the composers' orchestral scores in performance, listening and study. This book resituates the cultural context, uncovering a largely untapped wealth of early nineteenth-century domestic music-making and chamber ensemble arrangements of Beethoven's works.
