396pp, 123 black & white photographs, 122 line drawings. The most important evidence for Beethoven's compositional activity in 1820 is the manuscript known as Artaria 195, in which the now almost totally deaf composer made the notes on which his work increasingly relied. It contains sketches for the Missa Solemnis, two movements of Op. 109 and several shorter piano pieces. The first volume forms an introduction and commentary, the second a full-size facsimile, and the third provides a transcription of the entire manuscript. New copy. A very heavy set, extra postage will be requested.
