Bärenreiter continues its Urtext edition of the complete Beethoven piano sonatas with three major works at once.They begin with the frequently played op. 2 Sonatas (nos. 1-3) (BA 10859) which stem from his early yet mature oeuvre when he was developing an independent style from the legacy of Mozart and Haydn.They then proceed to the lyrical D major Sonata op. 28 from his middle period (nicknamed 'Pastorale? by the publisher of the original edition) (BA 11814) and finally to the Sonata op. 101, Beethoven's first sonata specifically intended for the 'hammerklavier? and the one that introduced his esoteric late style to the piano sonatas (BA 11811).The acclaimed Beethoven specialist Jonathan Del Mar has consulted every known source for these critical Urtext performing editions. In addition he has analysed various copies of the prints published during Beethoven's lifetime. The results of his accurate research are presented in a meticulously edited musical text at the cutting edge of scholarship, together with a detailed Critical Commentary.All three volumes stand out in terms of their elegant and well-presented layout.

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. Beethoven gave this sonata the unusual title “Sonata quasi una Fantasia, ” which it shares, along with its opus number, with the considerably more famous “Moonlight” Sonata. Both sonatas – along with the preceding sonata with the funeral march op. 26, and the three sonatas op. 31 soon to follow – usher in Beethoven ’s conquest of new musical territory in this genre. With a complex structure that oscillates between fantasia and sonata, op. 27 no. 1 has long presented pianists with great interpretive challenges that, once they have been overcome, bring to light a true jewel. G. Henle Publishers now also offers this sonata in a new edition, with provenfingering and interpretive suggestions by Murray Perahia and edited by the team of Beethoven experts Gertsch and Perahia. / Gertsch, Norbert / Perahia, Murray / Répertoire / Piano

Bookended by two famous sonatas the Waldstein op. 53 and the Appassionata op. 57 the F-major Sonata op. 54 has always lived in the shadows regrettably. In this first large-scale two-movement sonata Beethoven experiments with striking character contrasts in the first movement and a virtuosic perpetuum mobile duet in the second. In both interpretation and mastery of technical difficulties this sonata therefore poses a considerable challenge for pianists and might have been avoided for this reason as well. The sonata shares the fate of many early works by Beethoven in one respect: no autograph exists. Murray Perahia and Norbert Gertsch have thus only been able to examinean original edition as a source for their new edition. As always with the new editions of Beethoven sonatas from Henle Maestro Perahia also provides the fingerings ??? and his own commentary on the meaning of this sonata.

The Piano Sonata No. 5 in C Minor (Op.10 No.1) was written in 1798 and dedicated to Anna Margarete von Browne the wife of a Russian diplomat who was Beethoven's main patron at the time. One of his earlierworks it is in three movements: Allegro molto e con brio - Adagio molto – Prestissimo. Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827) was a German composer and pianist and arguably the most famouscomposer of all time. He was the last great figure of the Classical era and helped pave the way for the Romantic style that followed. His compositions include 9 Symphonies 5 Piano Concertos 1 Violin Concerto 32 Piano Sonatas and 16 String Quartets.

Opus 13 - Grande Sonate Pathetique. Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. In a span of only eight years, between 1794–1802, Beethoven composed twenty Piano sonatas, among them his so-called “Grande Sonate Pathétique” op. 13. It marks the consummation of his Classical style, yet also already alludes to his Heroic Period with its intensely Romantic characteristics. Composed in the “tragic” key of C minor, it foreshadows the expressive drama of later masterworks such as the Fifth Symphony or the Coriolan Overture. Of the famous sonatas, this one is the most technically manageable and thus proves immensely popular with advanced Piano students. The new Urtext edition from G. Henle Publishers hails from the successful Beethoven collaboration between Norbert Gertsch and Murray Perahia, as usual with fingering and interpretive suggestions from the great pianist. / Gertsch, Norbert / Perahia, Murray / Répertoire / Piano
