Lewis Lockwood is the Peabody Research Professor of Music Emeritus at Harvard University. After teaching at Princeton (1958–80) and Harvard (1980–2002) he is presently co-director of the Boston University Center for Beethoven Research. His early work was on a variety of subjects in the Italian Renaissance, and his major book was Music in Renaissance Ferrara, 1400–1505 (1984, 2009). His later research has centered on Beethoven, primarily his sketches and autographs but also wider issues. Recent publications include Beethoven: The Music and the Life (2003); Inside Beethoven’s Quartets, with the Juilliard Quartet (2008), Beethoven’s “Eroica” Sketchbook: A Critical Edition (with Alan Gosman, 2013), and Beethoven’s Symphonies (2015).
