Description

This varied compilation features dances (such as the "Menuet in G"), the "Sonatina in G," and "Lustig, Traurig." Each composition is showcased in its authentic format, with Beethoven's annotations distinctly marked. The collection includes three portraits of Beethoven, and Dr. Palmer's supplementary material elaborates on staccato and legato notations found in the composer's pieces. Tailored for intermediate pianists, this volume serves as an outstanding foundation for exploring Beethoven's sonatinas, bagatelles, and simpler variation sets.
