Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Angela Hewitt

Piano Sonatas is a collection of piano works by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1796 and 1814. Spanning his early to middle periods, the sonatas progress from Classical-era sonata forms towards greater structural and harmonic experimentation, featuring contrasting movements, varied tempi and dynamic contrasts that trace developments in his compositional style.
