Description

The "Eroica Variations"—named so because they were subsequently adapted for the finale of Beethoven's third Symphony, Op. 55—hold a significant position in piano literature. The work is distinguished by its structural magnificence and the originality and elegance of its piano composition. The technical requirements are substantial, comparable to many other pieces from Beethoven's middle period. A remarkable finger technique is necessary, and frequently, the requirements for speed and volume overlap. This edition, edited by Charles Timbrell, is derived from the autograph, which served as the source score for the first edition.
