The Sonata No. 8 in C Minor, Op. 13, is an important milestone, not
only in Beethoven's piano sonatas but also in the development of
the keyboard sonata. It is dramatic and emotional to the extent
seldom approached by composers of the day as suggested by the term
"pathtique" attached to the title of the first edition. Dr. Stewart
Gordons editions of Beethoven's most popular piano sonatas provide
the key to a stylistic performance. Thorough research of the
earliest available sources has enabled Dr. Gordon to produce the
most accurate reflection of the composers intent. Each sonata
contains helpful fingering suggestions and performance
recommendations. Other editors conclusions are noted where
performance options are open to interpretation.
Music examples and charts illustrate the analyses, and each
essay is fully annotated by the editor. In some cases, the results
of the original research by the editor or by others working in the
field are published here for the first time. Much of the material
has never before appeared in English.
