| Comments: | This sonata (second of three) was written when Beethoven was between the ages of eleven and thirteen! and published by Bossler of Spire in 1783 at the instigation of his teacher, Christian Gottlob Neefe. Note the foretaste of the "Appassionata" in the first movement... Beethoven viewed these three sonatas favorably, even later, at the height of his powers. |
