Beethoven: Selected Piano Works Book/Online Audio [With CD]

By Matthew Edwards

(Schirmer Performance Editions). Nestled beneath the larger works for which Beethoven is most often lauded lies a vast collection of short piano solos that he crafted throughout his career. These miniatures often display the same careful writing and attention to detail as his longer works. Some were actually intended as pedagogical studies; many derive their style from the popular dance music of the period and reflect Beethoven's love of simple, everyday pleasures.
