Description
The piano sonata Op. 14, No. 1 is interesting in that it is the only one of Beethoven's piano sonatas that he arranged for a different instrumentation: the string quartet. He undertook this arrangement to protect himself from those made by others. For this reason he went about it in a meticulous manner; adding, for instance, extremely detailed information regarding dynamics and articulation. The acclaimed pianist Murray Perahia, the co-editor for Henle's new edition of Beethoven's Sonatas, also takes this source into account for the revision and in addition provides his own fingerings.
This edition replaces the older HN170.
