Description:
There are three piano sonatas by Reicha entitled "Grande Sonate". Despite the French title, they were written when Reicha was living in Vienna, before his final move to Paris in 1808.
At that time, in the Austrian capital, Reicha was renewing his friendship with Beethoven and, though we have no documentary evidence for it, it was perhaps the latter's example that influenced Reicha to write piano sonatas that were more expansive in style than his earlier ones.
