Description:
Like its C minor sister op. 10/1, Beethoven's Sonata in F major op. 10/2 is one of the most frequently played works in piano lessons and piano studies. In contrast to the darker and brusque tones of opus 10/1, the F major sonata is characterized by cheerfulness, even sparkling humour, which is only interrupted by more pensive tones in the middle movement in F minor. The new edition is based on the first edition published in 1798 - the autograph is lost - but also draws on contemporary early prints to confirm the musical text. Readings that only emerged in the later 19th century are eliminated from the musical text, but their origins are explained in the critical notes. The edition thus offers an excellent working basis for teaching and performance.
