Sonatas « Pathétique », « Tempest », Op. 2/1 & Op. 10/1
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Zoltán Kocsis
This release is an album of piano sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, comprising early and middle-period works published between 1795 and 1803. Musically it spans Classical-era sonata forms, contrasting virtuosic and dramatic passages with lyrical slow movements and harmonic and structural experiments that illustrate Beethoven's development from his early Classical influences toward a more individual, exploratory compositional voice.
