Ludwig van Beethoven wrote 32 mature piano sonatas between 1795 and 1822. (He also wrote 3 juvenile sonatas at the age of 13 [1] and one unfinished sonata, WoO. 51.)Although originally not intended to be a meaningful whole, as a set they comprise one of the most important collections of works in the history of music. [2]
The sonata has three movements: Allegro assai; Tempo di minuetto, ma molto moderato e grazioso – in E-flat major; Allegro vivace; This sonata is characteristic of early/middle Beethoven in its solid sonata structure, just beginning to get adventurous in syncopation, with some extraordinary off beat sforzandi.
Like Mozart's, Beethoven's musical talent was recognized at a young age, [3] and these three piano sonatas give an early glimpse of the composer's abilities, as well as his boldness. Beethoven was writing in a form usually attempted by older, more mature composers, [ 4 ] as the sonata was a cornerstone of Classical piano literature.
