- "Cello Sonatas No. 1 and No. 2, Op. 5, are two sonatas for cello and piano written by Ludwig van Beethoven in 1796, while he was in Berlin. While there, Beethoven met the King of Prussia Friedrich Wilhelm II, an ardent music-lover and keen cellist. Although the sonatas are dedicated to Friedrich Wilhelm II, Ferdinand Ries tells us that Beethoven "played several times at the court, where he also played the two cello sonatas, opus 5, composed for Duport (the King's first cellist) and himself". Although Jean-Pierre Duport was one of the King's teachers, it is now thought to have been his brother Jean-Louis Duport who had the honor of premiering these sonatas.
In the early 19th century, sonatas for piano and instrument were usually advertised as piano sonatas with instrumental accompaniment. Beethoven's first violin sonatas, for instance, were published as "sonatas for piano with accompaniment by the violin." The cello sonata was especially so plagued, as it grew out of sonatas for continuo; as late as the beginning of the 19th century it was still common for the cello in cello sonatas to double the left hand of the piano part, with the piano right hand playing obbligato figurations and melodies. Beethoven, indeed, is credited with composing one of the first cello sonatas with a written-out piano part.
This sonata is in two movements, with an extended Adagio introduction preceding the opening Allegro."

Adagio sostenuto e espressivo / Allegro molto più tosto presto - 00:05
Rondo Allegro - 15:13
Absolute masterpiece. You can easily hear the reasons why Beethoven, already in the ears of his contemporaries, stood out for his eccentricity, brilliance, originality and genius. Moreover, the question of the three (or four, depending on the musicologists) periods is purely classificatory and artfully created to make historical clarity in his production. In fact, already in early works there are flashes of the future, surprisingly modern ideas that will reappear later, even in late production: demonstrating that Beethoven’s mindset, from the beginning, was already oriented towards research, experimentation, innovation - a prophetic mind, one of the greatest geniuses of Humanity.
I totally agree with your general remark on Beethoven!
Uchida said that Late Beethoven was always there, and already there, on his early compositions.
@@markito3311Yes it a part of a person’s soul! They’re always the same, only difference is with age it becomes even more mature & sophisticated! It becomes more clear as you get older! Not just with artists, this is the case with every human. However, whoever is gifted to be a genius, this is where they shine to the entire world with a brilliant light!
That first movement introduction was brilliant playing on the performers' part.
I have fond memories of playing this beautiful sonata with my Uncle Paul, a wonderful cellist who inspired my dream to become a musician. Thank you for sharing this!
I heard immediately these are two giant level artists
Wow, that melody!
¡Gracias por subir este material!
30 years I was introduced to the first sonata in F major at a concert my piano teacher gave with a local cellist. I never bothered to listen to a recording or try to play the second, it appeared to be uninteresting to me. I was so wrong! This piece is as grand and forward thinking as the first. What bursts of inspiration Beethoven had with these compositions!
Wait until you find about the one that probably the most difficult for both instruments, the third! 1, 2, and 3 are all beasts in their own way. 4 and 5 are more introspective, but very mature music. Go listen to #3 in A major already!! :)
@@XavierMacX I actually heard Ruth Laredo perform the 3rd about 20 years ago! What do you believe makes it so difficult? It appears very straightforward in its textures.
@@erika6651 Oh very nice! One of my old teachers knew her well.
I've play 2, 3, and 4 in multiple concerts with different cellists; 2 and 3 are always the most challenging in my opinion! It's one of those common Beethoven things (Brahms too) where it looks way easier on the page than in actuality. Depending on what tempi your cellist wants, 2 or 3 can be about even in difficulty... but there are ensemble issues in 3, especially with the 2nd and 4th movements, that while not immensely difficult, can be tricky under pressure. Cheers.
Actually, this is a very similar problem to evaluating Bach's English Suites No. 2 in A minor vs. No. 3 in g minor. From listening and looking at the sheet music, 3 seems much more difficult. Almost objectively false! The fingering required alone in No. 2 is hard enough, and there is more counterpoint in 2. I've played all 6, and it's funny what people (and even myself) consider difficult until you actually go to play it. Cheers again.
@@XavierMacX Laredo was the only "named" pianist I've seen live. It was a treat to hear her perform in Maine while she was still healthy.
I figured 3 was largely ensemble issues. I've heard several recordings of the piece and I don't always love the balance between the performers. Off topic but have you ever performed Dvorak's Dumky Trio? The final movement must be hell to coordinate.
Благодарю 🙏🤸
Продолжайте работать! 🙏
Отличные превью, хорошие исполнения, качественные ноты! Отличная работа! При выборе тех или иных записей, хочется открывать именно Ваши, т.к. они цепляют глаз, а затем и ухо.
Продолжайте работать 🙏
I've thought the first composition of Beethoven that has the true stamp of greatness was his Piano Sonata no. 7 (op. 10 no. 3); this piece, however, makes a pretty good case for that distinction.
His Opus 1 C Minor Trio is large scale and brilliant as well!
This wonderful upload complete my dream, thank you: Maestro Schwammerl !
brilliant !

מתחיל ב2 ואחרי זה 6 ו1 ו6 ו4 לגלות האחרונה. מלנכולי ומהיר ביותר וסיום איטי אבל שמח עם 3 ו6 הפוך ו4 ו4 וסיום ב4.
The rondo allegro is amazing
Why is the piano part so hard mr. Ludwig 🤕
The cello part is pretty easy or realisable while the piano part is impossible and very fast
A merry bobsled ride!

Pika pika
Whos here from mount and blade l aigle?
Tut mir leid, es ist für mich zu brutal und die Technik steht weit im Vordergrund. Man möge mir meine persönliche Meinung bitte nachsehen, man muss sie ja nicht teilen.
Das ist geklaut! Adagio von Tomaso Albinoni!
Offfffffffff
Tomaso Albinoni's Adagio in g-minor written in the 20th century based upon a fragment of sheet music that had never been published? Yeah, Beethoven totally stole that. He is known for being ahead of his time so this time he took it more literally :D
