LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN COMPLETE PIANO SONATAS VOL. 1 NOS 1-15 & VOL. 2 NOS 16-32

Description: LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN PIANO SONATAS These are two books of Ludwig Van Beethoven Complete Piano Sonatas volume 1 (NOS 1-15) and volume two (NOS 16-32) dated 1975 edited by Heinrich Schenker. Volume 1 has 284 pages and volume 2 has 615 pages. These two book are in new condition, have never been used but due to age there is some yellowing on back cover of volumn 1 and volume 2 along outside edge of the cover looks like some over spray. Please see my photos as they are part of my description. They come from a pet and smoke free home. Product InformationThe entire corpus of Beethoven's piano sonatas is contained in this two-volume work -- 32 sonatas in all. Volume One contains the fifteen sonatas from Beethoven's first period, including the popular Path tique, Moonlight, and Pastorale sonatas. Volume Two contains the seventeen sonatas from Beethoven's second and third periods, including the Waldstein, the Appassionata, and the Hammerklavier. The music is reproduced directly from the exemplary Universal-Edition set edited by Heinrich Schenker. Combining scrupulous scholarship and profound artistic vision, Schenker achieved an edition which is universally admired by musicians and scholars. He used more autographs as sources than any previous editor of the sonatas, and he was the first to reproduce in print the visual impression of the autographs. For this Dover edition, Schenker's footnotes have been translated into English and his preface retranslated. A new introduction by Carl Schachter has also been included. Noteheads have been reproduced in a size enough to be read easily at the keyboard. Margins and spaces between staves are generous, permitting insertion of written notes, analysis, fingerings, etc. Running measure numbers and many fingerings have already been included by the editor -- the last a particularly unusual and valuable feature of this edition. This edition will be welcomed by all pianists, both professional and amateur, for its accuracy and reliability; it is highly desirable for instruction, study, reference, and enjoyment.
