EXAMINATIONS ON LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN’S TRIO, OP. 11 AND SUGGESTIONS FOR CLARINET PLAYERS

Abstract

This study examines the Trio, Op. 11 for clarinet, cello and piano in Bb Major by German composer Ludwig van Beethoven. It mainly focuses on the role of the clarinet within the ensemble and offers suggestions for improving performance technique and interpretation of the clarinet player, as well as togetherness of the ensemble. The aim is to help musicians and music students perform the work in a correct manner, in the light of these examinations. Beethoven composed the Trio, Op.11 upon the request of clarinet virtuoso Joseph Beer and completed it in the first half of 1789. Today, musicians and music students frequently perform and study this work, which is among the most important works of clarinet chamber music education repertoire. This study, first of all, introduces general information on Beethoven’s life and musical identity, and shortly touches upon his works with clarinet, along with similar works of other composers in the 19th century. Then, in the light of examinations on the Trio, Op. 11, it determines the sections that may create technical difficulties in clarinet performance, as well as difficulties for ensemble playing, and makes suggestions to overcome these difficulties. This study would help current and future generation musicians, educators, pianists, clarinet and cello players to learn about Beethoven and to improve quality of their interpretation by providing a more comprehensible view on the subject.
