Lettre à Élise; Sonate Op. 110

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Brigitte Engerer

Piano Sonata No. 31 in A-flat major, Op. 110 is a piano sonata by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1821 and published in 1822. As a late-period work it blends lyrical piano writing with intense dramatic contrasts and contrapuntal techniques, culminating in an extended fugal passage and a reflective closing section that illustrate Beethoven's advanced structural and expressive approach in his final sonatas.
