Description

This scholarly monograph by Margaret Seares examines Johann Mattheson's Pieces de clavecin (1714) and Das neu-eroffnete Orchestre, positioning the prolific music theorist, critic and composer within his role as a public intellectual who shaped German musical culture. Seares contextualises Mattheson's instrumental works within his broader theoretical writings and his advocacy for a universal style that drew from leading European musical traditions rather than insular German practices. The study traces how Mattheson encouraged musicians and audiences to move beyond established conventions and embrace contemporary musical expression across national styles. This Royal Musical Association monograph provides essential analysis of a surprisingly under-examined figure whose contributions to music theory, criticism and composition merit greater scholarly attention, offering readers a comprehensive understanding of Mattheson's intellectual influence and compositional innovations during the early 18th century.

Key Features

Margaret Seares provides detailed analysis of Mattheson's Pieces de clavecin (1714) within the context of his theoretical writings and public intellectual role.

The monograph explores how Mattheson's Das neu-eroffnete Orchestre promoted a universal musical style that synthesised contemporary practices from across Europe.

Seares examines Mattheson's early non-musical writings to illuminate his broader philosophy of encouraging German musicians to transcend traditional compositional boundaries.

Published by Routledge as part of the Royal Musical Association Monographs series, this study represents the first comprehensive scholarly treatment of this historically significant but understudied composer.

The work establishes Mattheson as a pivotal figure in 18th-century music theory and criticism whose ideas shaped both compositional practice and musical pedagogy.
