Kenneth Drake's Major Cntribution, December 20, 2009
This review is from: The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creative Experience (Paperback)
Kenneth Drake's book "The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creatvie Experience" is, in my opinion, the definitive book on this subject. I have the earlier version of his book published by MTNA. It is my constant companion and something from which I quote continuously to my colleagues and pupils, and during my lectures and masterclasses. I met Kenneth Drake some years back at a dinner gathering. After being introduced to him and expressing my awe at meeting the author of a book I so admire, I had to add, "You are a legendary figure to me."

The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creative Experience, September 3, 2008
This review is from: The Beethoven Sonatas and the Creative Experience (Paperback)
As an amateur pianist, Professor Drake's book is proving to be a useful adjunct to my understanding, enjoyment and performance of Beethoven's monumental compositions.
