BEETHOVEN Piano Sonatas nos 21 & 30, ANDANTE FAVORI (CD, Philips) CLAUDIO ARRAU

Description: Ludwig van BeethovenClaudio Arrau (piano) Sonata for Piano no 21in C major, Op. 53 "Waldstein" Andante favoriWoO 57 in F Sonata for Piano no 30 in E major, Op. 109 recorded: Le Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, October, 1984 The Andante favori was written between 1803 and 1804, and published in 1805. It was originally intended to be the second of the three movements of Beethoven's Waldstein piano sonata, Op. 53. The following extract from Thayer's Beethoven biography explains the change: Ries reports (Notizen, p. 101) that a friend of Beethoven's said to him that the sonata was too long, for which he was terribly taken to task by the composer. But after quiet reflection Beethoven was convinced of the correctness of the criticism. The andante... was therefore excluded and in its place supplied the interesting Introduction to the rondo which it now has. A year after the publication of the sonata, the andante also appeared separately. It was composed as a musical declaration of love for Countess Josephine Brunsvik, but the Brunsvik family increased the pressure to terminate the relationship. She could not contemplate marrying Beethoven, a commoner. The reason for the title was given by Beethoven's pupil Czerny, quoted in Thayer: "Because of its popularity (for Beethoven played it frequently in society) he gave it the title Andante favori ("favored Andante").
