Heart muzyka

in some of the most famous works of Beethoven found striking rhythms, the basis of which could serve as the beating of his heart, says a team of researchers from the University of Washington. The team consists of a cardiologist, medical historian and muzykoveda.Issledovateli analyzed several works by Beethoven, trying to find in them the symptoms of heart disease, from which, in their opinion, the composer suffered. Rhythms of certain parts of the well-known works, the researchers say, can really be a reflection of abnormal heart rhythm composer, which could be due to cardiac arrhythmia.

"Maybe it was the music of the heart in the figurative and in the literal sense of the word. When your heart from beating properly due to illness, it does so in a certain, quite formulaic situations. We believe that we hear in his music some of these patterns ». Blockquote> Team published an essay, which is the lead author Zachary Goldberger, a cardiologist from the University of Washington School of Medicine. Also among the authors researcher Robert Wood Johnson and musicologist Steven Uayting.V essay explores the rhythmic pattern of several compositions, which may reflect the presence of Beethoven arrhythmia, that is a disease that causes the heart to beat either too fast or too slowly or intermittently. Sudden and unexpected changes in musical tempo, which appear in the music of Beethoven, just and consistent with such asymmetrical shablonam.Dlya example we can take the final part of the "Cavatina" from Beethoven's String Quartet (in B-flat major, opus 130), is the most emotionally charged part which, in the words of Beethoven, always made him plakat.

In the middle of the quartet tone suddenly changed to B-flat Major, appears unbalanced rhythm, causing dark emotions, disorientation and what is usually described as "breathing difficulties" .In musical directions composer musician playing this part, it is marked as «beklemmt», German word that translates to "choked" The authors of the essays point out that «beklemmt» can mean sadness, but these words also can describe the feeling of pressure, a sense associated with heart disease. "Arrhythmia that part is not in doubt" - write oni.Issledovateli found patterns of arrhythmia and in other works. They studied the Piano Sonata (A-flat Major, opus 110) and the beginning of "Farewell" Sonata for Piano (opus 81a, E flat major), written during the French attack on Vienna in 1809 godu.Bethovenu credited with a list of diseases , which include inflammatory bowel disease, Paget's disease (bone destruction), liver disease, kidney disease and alcohol abuse. And often described Beethoven's deafness, which, according to the authors of the essay, could strengthen the other senses of the composer, so that it has become much more aware of his heartbeat.

"We can not prove or disprove that Beethoven suffered from all of the above diseases, since diagnostic medical tests today in the XIX century did not exist, and we interpret old medical description in the context of what we know now. However, common indications for abnormal heartbeat together with so many other diseases makes reasonable assumption that Beethoven suffering from arrhythmia, and its operation may be a kind of "musical cardiogram". Of course, this musical arrhythmia can be a manifestation of the genius of Beethoven, but there is also the likelihood that his beating heart was literally the basis for some of his work ».
