Beethoven Complete Works For Solo Piano Vol 12

Brautigam Ronald

Catalogue # BISSACD1883

Ronald Brautigam continues his traversal of Beethoven’s complete works for solo piano with a group of early variations.

The Dressler Variations were Beethoven’s first published work and started a forty year association with the variation form.

The Dressler Variations are certainly less heavy-weight than his later works, but the so-called Venni Amore Variations, WoO 65 point forward to a much later period in Beethoven’s œuvre.

In this series, Ronald Brautigam has previously recorded early sonatas and sonatinas from the same period as the present works. As on the previous instalment in the series, Brautigam has chosen to perform these early variations on a fortepiano after a Walter & Sohn instrument from c.1805.

Beethoven:
Variations (9) on a March by Dressler, WoO 63
Variations (6) in F major on a Swiss Song, WoO 64
Variations (24) on Righini’s Arietta ‘Venni amore,’ WoO 65
Variations (13) on the Arietta ‘Es war ein alter Mann’, WoO 66
Variations (12) on the ‘Menuet à la Vigano’ by Haibel, WoO 68
Variations (9) on the Aria ‘Quant’ è più bello’, WoO 69
Variations (6) in G major on the duet ‘Nel cor più non mi sento’ from the opera La Molinara by Giovanni Paisiello, WoO 70
