  Denis Dutton on Charles Rosen
Charles Rosen is so familiar to readers as an acute music theorist and historian of European ideas and literature that it is easy to forget that he is one of most stimulating and compelling pianists of the last fifty years.
Rosen notes that “the eccentric and portentously personal interpretations by artists of the 1920s and 1930s” were not suitable for the later decades after the introduction of LPs, when a “faithful reflection of the composition” was more important than a unique, personal performance.
Rosen was told that as a small child — a five-year-old accustomed to Beethoven and Wagner — his first reaction to Debussy was that such music must be made against the law.

...Rosen therefore talks a good deal about sonority and resonance: about tone color as an element of form, about the harmonics of the piano, about the new aesthetic of the pedal, even about the role of silence...
...Rosen notes one benefit of the delay: in the interim there has been a resurgence of critical interest in Chopin, leading to a revision of old and tired opinions...

 Guardian | Charles Rosen
In recent years Charles Rosen has proved to be one of the most sensitive of virtuosos in romantic music; he has given first performances of music by Elliott Carter and Pierre Boulez and is the author of a series of inspirational books on music from Haydn to Schoenberg.
The Chopin was carefully balanced between the improvisatory fantasy of the Polonaise Fantasie and the Fourth Ballade, and the limpid precision of the B major Nocturne Op 62 No 1 and the Barcarolle, Op 60.
The Nocturne was beautifully translucent, and Rosen gave the Barcarolle an unaffected tenderness.

 Amazon.com: Books: The Romantic Generation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Rosen explains and describes the first half of the 19th century in conjunction with literature, art, and social changes; for example, he compares the content and format of early 19th-century poetry with the smaller contemporary musical forms.
Rosen's "The Romantic Generation" is really written for people with a thorough grounding in music theory, but even with a limited understanding of harmony, counterpoint, and structure, I was able to derive much enjoyment from these essays.
Rosen effectively explodes any lingering remnants of the charge that Chopin was incapable of handling large forms, or was an "untrained genius." He makes a convincing case for Chopin as the most assiduously trained and capable musician of his generation -- and it was not a generation of lightweights.

Charles Rosen by now has attained a place among musical analysts on a par with the likes of Tovey and Grout, though his style is very different from either of these luminaries.
Rosen's writing, though it can be dense and repetitive, at its best is unmatched in its ability to relate analysis to what actually is heard by a listener.
Rosen steered me toward many, many other books, cited in his bibliography and notes, on related topics, such as sonata form, how it works and does not.

Even more significant was meeting Charles Ives a year before, whom he admired and continued to see often, and who encouraged his ambitions at composition.
