Schubert himself participated extensively in this rich world of domestic music-making. Around 1800 terms such as \"amateur\" and \"dilettante\" had broader and more positive connotations than today, and \"amateurs\" could indeed often portray a high skill level. The book considers the amateurs' and dilettantes' identities and motivations for making music, and their various roles in the musical life of early nineteenth-century Vienna. It dives deeply into contexts, performance practices and spaces, as well as instruments that have so far been little explored. \u003ci\u003eMusical Amateurs in Schubert's Vienna\u003c\/i\u003e uncovers new key agents in early nineteenth-century Viennese musical life who have so far remained invisible.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 228\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 30, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51988167983405,"sku":"9781837652440","price":169.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/Ot2GZJEbUr9781837652440.webp?v=1776196225","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/musical-amateurs-as-artistic-citizens-in-schuberts-vienna-hardcover","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
