Summary: A Different Beethoven
Review: The Bagatelles (the word loosely means 'trifle') of Beethoven reveal the miniaturist. We commonly think of Beethoven as a writer of sprawling sonatas, symphonies, etc. But he wrote some very fine smaller pieces. The Bagatelles are rewarding to play.The Rondos in this volume, especially the one titled 'Rage Over A Lost Penny' are interesting, and well within the capabilities of intermediate to advanced pianists. Dover's edition lies flat on the piano, the notes are large enough for easy reading, and this edition has a lot of music for a very economical price. Recommended
