A composer's working methods are unique to his or her personality. Some composers are fluent2 and fast: Rossini, it is said, preferred rewriting a page to picking up a leaf of manuscript fallen to the floor, and Mozart appears to have been able to keep the totality of a work in his mind's ear at every turning point. Beethoven worked with great difficulty; Mahler revised compulsively,3 forever tinkering with bass drum strokes and cymbal crashes. Adapted from D. Kern Holoman, Masterworks: A Musical Discovery (New York: Prentice-Hall, 1998), 7. Main Idea: a. Beethoven worked with great difficulty. b. Some composers work quickly, seemingly without effort. c. Every composer has unique working methods. d. Mozart could keep track of several musical parts simultaneously.
