- W1976307598 abstract "In the bibliography of his fascinating new book, Romanticism and Musical Culture in Britain 1770–1840 (Cambridge, 2010), Gillen D’Arcy Wood divides the citations from the secondary literature into two categories: “literary criticism and history” and “musicology.” This is graciously ironic, for in the preface the author confesses that his book seeks to “unite” two fields of study, literature and music, both located in his life’s story. The book’s remarkable and confident ease with music and music history as objects of study comes as no surprise since the author reveals that his ambition to integrate the study of literature with music began with music. Wood initially embarked on a potential career as a pianist. In the process he encountered the stiff standards and deadly routine that are part of the athletic side of professional instrument playing. He also remembers the attendant rationalizations by those unable or reluctant to do the work, the well-rehearsed invidious distinction between technical prowess and so-called artistry. This tension, cultivated, as the author knows, mostly by those without the requisite athletic skills, has its own distinguished history in the period Wood writes about. Robert Schumann’s failure to develop into a concert pianist is a complex and contested subject, but there is little doubt that his struggle with trying to become a virtuoso colored the logic and rhetoric of his highly influential published criticism. Schumann argued persuasively, in the 1830s, for the need to distinguish between dazzling superficial effect (primarily on the piano and in piano literature) and profound sentiment in musical art. In its highest form, the technically brilliant and the aesthetically sublime could be combined in one artist without contradiction, as in the cases of Czerny and Liszt. Wood realized that indeed, as Liszt never tired of arguing, there was an inherent dialectical and reflexive connection between inner sentiment and the prowess necessary to realize that sentiment.
