Muzio Clementi

Selected Piano Sonatas Vol. I

This is a wonderful selection of Piano Sonatas by Muzio Clementi. A dedicated player and pioneer of the Piano, which led to him being dubbed the father of the piano, Italian composer and Pianist Muzio Clementi created a large repertoire of long-lived and revered sonatas for Piano, especially during his time in England.

Clementi was the consummate Piano devotee: his performances, didactic exercises and sonatas for mature pianists, all helped to popularize the instrument throughout Europe.

This Urtext edition of these Piano Sonatas Volume 1 (Klaviersonaten Auswahl Band 1), edited by Sonja Gerlach and Alan Tyson, and fingered by Hans-Martin Theopold, provides you with an accurate realisation of the composer's original intentions, with thorough and detailed editorial markings and suggestions.
