| Summary: | 碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 音樂研究所 === 101 === In 1809, Beethoven was commissioned to compose incidental music for Goethe’s play Egmont which is consisted of the most-performed overture followed by a sequence of nine additional pieces.
Beethoven was bitterly disappointed by the reign of Napoleon, and therefore expressed his concerns over great heroism of the Count of Egmont, integrating whole play into the overture. The work was written in sonata form strongly manifesting the Romanticism technique.
The objective of this research aims at the conducting interpretation of Egmont Overture based on from the biography and background of Beethoven, and Goethe’s original play to the further analysis of music form, reaching an understanding and embodying the better conducting interpretation.
