Ludwig van Beethoven - 3 Piano Sonatas WoO 47 [Kurfürsten] Komponist: Ludwig van Beethoven Antall sider: 44 Sjanger: Classical Instrument: Piano Utgivelsesår: 1988 Utgiver: G. Henle Verlag Utgavenummer: HN 255 ISMN: 9790201802558 Called “Kurfürstensonaten” (Prince-Elector sonatas), these three sonatas were published in fall 1783. In the dedication which was most certainly not formulated by Beethoven one reads: “Most lofty sir ... I have now reached my eleventh year” (whereby the composer has been made two years younger), “and since then my Muse has whispered to me often during the hours of devotion: Be bold and lay down the harmonies of your soul!” ... May I now, exalted Prince, dare to lay the first of my juvenile outpourings at the steps of your throne?” In fact, the three sonatas have a special place among Beethoven’s earliest compositions, already exude his spirit, and can be used to acquaintthe budding pianist with this composer.
