Rachmaninoff's Prélude in D major from his op. 23 collection is a wonderfully dreamy nocturne in the style of Chopin. The engaging immediacy of its poetic magic and the fact that it is only moderately...

Beethoven's three piano sonatas op. 2 were the first works in this genre to which he gave an opus number, thus signalling to the musical world the special importance that he assigned to them. He wrote...

In contrast to the large collections of partitas, along with the French and English Suites, Bach's Fantasies, and his Preludes and Fugues besides the Well-Tempered Clavier have not come down to us as...

Bach most likely composed his Toccatas in his early creative years, between 1707 and 1713; they can be seen as the products of Bach‘s own 'Sturm und Drang' period, and were not planned as an interconn...

The Clavierübung published in four sections belongs to the few works of Bach that he allowed to be printed during his lifetime. Part I, which appeared in print in 1731, contains the six Partitas; Part...

With his 66 Lyric Pieces Edvard Grieg created a multifaceted treasury of piano miniatures and character pieces. Many have become piano classics, none more so than The Wedding at Troldhaugen, which Hen...

Chopin's waltzes were - contrary to, say, those by Schubert - no longer conceived for dancing or for the ballroom. These pieces assumed the form and function of idealized concert waltzes, which Chopin...

Over 50 internationally celebrated pianists were invited to adopt one Haydn piano sonata each and provide it with their personal fingerings - a 'who's who' on the contemporary piano scene. G. Henle Pu...

The large and technically demanding G major Sonata was composed two years before Schubert's death in October 1826 and is one of only three piano sonatas that appeared in print during his lifetime. The...

Entre las sonatas para piano de Haydn, la gran Sonata en mi bemol mayor es particularmente popular. Fue compuesta en 1794 durante la segunda estancia de Haydn en Londres, donde conoció el nuevo fortep...

Schubert's 22 piano sonatas sketch a most illuminating picture of the prematurely departed composer and of his compositional path. From the first attempts of the gifted 16- to 19-year- old musician on...

Bach's Six Partitas form what is presumably the most famous and challenging collection of suites in music history. Bach was aware of the weightiness of his cycle as he initially had these multi-moveme...

Franz Schubert parece haberse sentido especialmente atraído por la tonalidad de la menor. No sólo una, sino tres de sus sonatas para piano están en esta tonalidad. La primera de ellas, D 537, fue comp...

Schubert occupied himself intensively with the sonata form in 1818/19. The results, to put it like this, led to the creation of this piano sonata in A major, probably in summer 1819, thus at about the...

Haydn's c-minor Sonata is shot through by a passionate, dark, at times sullen mood. It may be regarded as the Viennese classicist's own 'Appassionata' - a great triumph! It is almost inconceivable tha...

Inicialmente denominada "Sérénade" en el autógrafo, y más concretamente "Sérénade grotesque" en la posterior autobiografía del compositor, esta composición es la primera obra para piano conocida de Ra...
