Sonata In F Minor, Op. 57 ("Appassionata") / Sonata No. 7 In D, Op. 10, No. 3
Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Vladimir Horowitz
This release pairs two piano sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, originally composed in 1804 and 1798. Musically situated between his early and middle periods, the works showcase Beethoven's expansion of sonata form with heightened dramatic contrast, robust keyboard textures, turbulent minor-key passages and demanding virtuosic writing that helped advance the piano repertoire.
