Sonatina C major

For Countess Josephine of Clary-Aldringen, Beethoven wrote several works for mandolin and piano four of which are still extant. These new arrangements adhere as closely to the original as possible and are written in the original key. The elegant works are shining little gems. Sonatina in C major radiates a virtuoso ease and cheerfulness while the variations of the Andante are full of humour, with deep emotions in the minor variation.
