Product Information
The Germans have a word for it: Augenblick --the blink of an eye. There are such moments in the musical works explored in this book, subtle moments that, by their nature, do not announce themselves, do not pound the table for attention. And yet, in Richard Kramer's argument, these are the prismatic moments which seem to contain within themselves the essence of the work, as problems to be examined and as symptoms of a cast of mind that embodies Enlightenment sensibility. In the German and Austrian Enlightenment of the 1770s and 1780s these moments hold special appeal: writers and philosophers from Moses Mendelssohn to Johann Gottfried Herder speak of "the swift sentiment with which beauty surprises our senses" and describe the "stunned surprise" ( Überraschung ) that excites our sensibilities when something in the work of art, music, or literature brings about sudden revelation and recognition. In nine short chapters, Kramer takes us through some beloved musical works in search of such moments. There is the unexpected chromatic dissonance that lingers at a critical turn of phrase in a sonata or chamber ensemble, from Emanuel Bach's keyboard sonatas to Mozart's Quintet for Strings and Beethoven's Razumovsky Quartets. Or the stretched syntax and singular rhetorical imagery in the odes by Klopstock for which Beethoven left unfinished musical settings in his sketchbooks. There are Cherubino's mercurial changes of heart in Mozart's Figaro and Konstanze's outburst of tears in his Abduction from the Seraglio . And finally, there is the literal and fearful moment of recognition in the fourth act of Gluck's Iphigenie en Tauride , when the long-lost siblings recognize one another just as Iphigenia's knife is about to sacrifice Orestes to the gods. Through it all, we learn with Kramer to take pleasure in the irreconcilable and exquisite tension between reason and the irrational that is at the core of the Enlightenment mind.

Reviews
A withdrawal from the grandeur of the monograph into a more lyrical world of fragments and essays, strange and productively uneven tapestries, captivating islands of colourful aperçus poetically abandoned in seas of a sometimes baffling, threadbare weave. . . . Exquisite . . . . If Cherubino's Leap has such a wealth to offer to our historical understanding of the various ends of the long eighteenth century, it has even more to offer us in terms of the pleasures of the scholarly act itself., No one writes about late Enlightenment music with the sensitivity and critical acuity of Kramer. In this extraordinary book, close readings that are as attentive to poetic and musical detail as they are attuned to shades of feeling movingly explore moments of deep inscrutability in C. P. E. Bach, Gluck, Beethoven, and Mozart. Kramer's profound sympathy with the paradoxes and ironies of the culture of sensibility, and his discreetly brilliant way of writing about them, are breathtaking., In this provocative book, Kramer explores musical moments that foster intense engagement by the listener. With a virtuosic range of reference to Enlightenment thinkers, and with heart-catching analyses of words set to music, Cherubino's Leap seeks to understand the 'inner ear' of several important composers by working outward from brief but powerful evocations of meaning in their works. A welcome offering from one of our most profoundly musical scholars., No one writes about late Enlightenment music with the sensitivity and critical acuity of Kramer. In this extraordinary book, close readings that are as attentive to poetic and musical detail as they are attuned to shades of feeling movingly explore moments of deep inscrutability in C. P. E. Bach, Gluck, Beethoven, and Mozart. Kramer's profound sympathy with the paradoxes and ironies of the culture of sensibility, and his discreetly brilliant way of writing about them, are breathtaking., Cherubino's Leap is an excellent study by an outstanding musical thinker. It is a work sui generis, an elegant, refined, uncompromising exploration of critical passages in eighteenth-century masterpieces. This is engagement with music at the deepest level., Cherubino's Leap is full of revelations, as acute and probing an investigation of Enlightenment sensibility as has yet been penned., No living writer on music is more qualified to point his snapshot camera obscura at moments that look initially either on the margins or so familiar that we need no further elucidation. The through-line in this provocative and wide-ranging collection of essays is that perpetual tension between the diatonic and the chromatic, and the author's nine close readings of everything from a Klopstock ode to the mysteries of Cherubino are page-turning celebrations of layered, interwoven storytelling., In this provocative book, Kramer explores musical moments that foster intense engagement by the listener.
