| Abstract: |
The article explores the unresolved performance practice question regarding how pianists should interpret the notation of triplets and dotted rhythms when they appear together in musical scores. It discusses the varying perspectives of theorists, composers, and engravers, particularly focusing on the practices of composers like Schubert and Beethoven. While Schubert's autograph of "Wasserflut" suggests a simultaneous performance of these rhythms, Beethoven's works indicate a preference for separating them. The article emphasizes the significance of composers' autographs as reliable guides for understanding their intentions, despite the ongoing debates in performance practices.
