Violin Sonatas

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Leonidas Kavakos & Enrico Pace

Violin Sonatas is a set of violin sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1797 and 1812. They span Beethoven's early to middle compositional periods and are rooted in classical sonata structures, with increasing dramatic contrasts and a greater equality between violin and piano that contributed to developments in chamber music technique and expression.
