Markand Thakar 
Looking for the ‘Harp’ Quartet [EPUB ebook] 
An Investigation into Musical Beauty

Sokongan

This book is a philosophical tour through the experience of beauty: what it is, and how the composer, performer, and listener all contribute. It explores — with insight, patience, and humor — profound issues at the essence of our experience. A student performance of Beethoven’s String Quartet No. 10 in E-Flat Major, known as the ‘Harp, ‘ serves as a point of departure and a recurring theme. For the layperson the core of the book is five dialogues between Icarus, an inquiring student intensely concerned with fulfilling his highest potential as a musician, and Daedalus, a curmudgeonly, iconoclastic teacher who guides Icarus’s search. Three technical articles, geared to the music professional and academic, treat the issues in greater depth.
