Beethoven wrote 32 sonatas for piano. The final installment, Volume
4, edited by Stewart Gordon, contains Sonatas 25--32, written
between 1809 and 1822 and published shortly thereafter. Of the
eight sonatas in this volume, autographs exist in whole or in part
for all but Op. 106, missing since World War II. This edition is
based on the existing autographs and the first editions. Dr. Gordon
discusses a variety of topics including Beethoven's life; the
pianos of his time and their limitations; Beethoven's use of
articulation, ornamentation, tempi; and the age-old challenge of
attempting to determine the definitive interpretation of
Beethoven's music. Valuable performance recommendations, helpful
fingering suggestions and ornament realizations are offered in this
comprehensive critical body of Beethoven's sonatas. Where
performance options are open to interpretation, other editors'
conclusions are noted, enabling students and teachers to make
informed performance decisions. Titles: Op. 79 ("Sonatine"); Op.
81a; Op. 90; Op. 101; Op. 106 ("Hammer-Klavier"); Op. 109; Op. 110;
and Op. 111. 264 pages.
