Description
This is one of Mozart's fragmentary sonata sketches, condensing the soft character of B-flat major into a mere thirty-two seconds and 199 notes. It feels more like a sketch of an idea than a fully completed movement, offering a small glimpse into Mozart's creative process. Brief as it is, its decorative figures still call for a careful, attentive touch.
Piano sonatas representative of the Classical and Romantic eras, including Beethoven's early works — substantial multi-movement pieces throughout.
