A straightened corner fold on the last blank endpaper, a touch of wear to tips of page corners. Book is clean, bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Untorn,… unclipped dust jacket shows gentle age-yellowing, faint shelfwear, residue of shop stickers on the front panel. -- This is a seminal analysis of two of Beethoven's early sketchbooks, offering a detailed account of the composer's working process during the early 1800s. Focusing on the so-called Kessler and Eroica sketchbooks, Nottebohm reconstructs Beethoven's compositional methods through descriptive commentary interspersed with transcribed musical fragments. The study traces the evolution of thematic material, structural experimentation, and motivic development that would later appear in major works such as the Eroica Symphony and the ballet The Creatures of Prometheus. Originally published in German in the 19th century, Nottebohm's work was foundational for modern Beethoven scholarship, and this 1979 English edition, translated by Jonathan Katz and introduced by Denis Matthews, makes these critical insights accessible to a broader audience. The book stands as both a historical document in its own right and a methodological model for sketch studies, illustrating the intersection of philological rigor and musicological interpretation in the study of compositional genesis.
