Violinsonaten Op. 12/2, 23 & 24

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Oleg Kagan & Sviatoslav Richter

Violinsonaten Op. 12/2, 23 & 24 are violin sonatas by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed and published between 1798 and 1801. They illustrate Beethoven's transition from his early Classical influences to a more individual expressive style, pairing lyrical violin writing with increasingly assertive pianistic textures and expanded formal ambition that foreshadows his middle-period works.
First released: 1995
