Description
Among the early set of sonatas, this B-flat major work stands out for its light, lively character. The second movement offers gentle lyricism, while the finale moves with quick, nimble passages, creating a clear contrast between movements. At a relatively brief four and a half minutes but with 2,783 notes, it requires a crisp, even touch through its faster passages.
Piano sonatas representative of the Classical and Romantic eras, including Beethoven's early works — substantial multi-movement pieces throughout.
