Complete Bagatelles for Piano

From the Publisher

The bagatelles reflect Beethoven’s diverse compositional cosmos in miniature. Technically, they range from moderate dexterity to demanding virtuosity.

In addition to the well-known collections opp. 33, 119 and 126, ten pieces were found after Beethoven’s death in an envelope labelled “Bagatelles”. These included the revised version of “Für Elise” as well as two further bagatelles in previously unpublished versions.

New interesting findings regarding interpretation, a compelling Foreword and insightful notes on Viennese piano playing in Beethoven’s time (Ger/Eng) as well as a detailed Critical Commentary (Eng) offer an abundance of information and a new perspective on Beethoven’s bagatelle œuvre.
