Some of Beethoven’s most enduring and unabashedly successful works stem from his
so-called “Middle Period” and in the genre of chamber music, the quartets op. 74 and 95
together with the recently issued op. 59 quartets complete this period.
Jonathan Del Mar’s scholarly critical edition of quartets op. 74 and 95 sets the record straight
once and for all, restoring Beethoven’s articulation, dynamics and lengths of slurs as the
composer originally intended.
The interdependency of the sources and their readings are clearly laid out by Del Mar
in his Critical Commentary, which also contains facsimile pages pointing out ambiguities with
previous editions.
