Sonate pour piano No. 14 "Au clair de lune"

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Wilhelm Backhaus

Sonate pour piano No. 14 'Au clair de lune' is a piano sonata by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed in 1801. It is written in a quiet, expressive style that blends Classical forms with early Romantic harmony, with a slow, sustained first movement followed by more agitated movements, and it was composed during Beethoven's middle period when he began to move toward greater emotional range and harmonic boldness.
