Of the three sonatinas written by Beethoven the Sonatina in G is the most accessible appealing and successful. It is a light-hearted two-movement sonatina which remains almost entirely in the key of G. The B section of the second movement opens in the dominant key of D providing harmonic motion coupled with beautiful melodic motion in the right hand. Beethoven's craftsmanship is evident in the coda to this movement. Here the opening motif is used to settle expressively on the E-minor chord recalling the E-minor harmony of the third measure. This provides structural balance and harmonic interest. The Pianist can accentuate this moment by playing the first section of thecoda softly and unhurriedly.

Par SCHUBERT FRANZ. Tout jeune violoniste connaît les sonatines de Schubert pour violon et piano. Le titre de sona-tines remonte à l’édition posthume de 1836, Schubert lui-même les désignait par le terme de «sonates». La forme diminutive fut choisie sans doute parce que ces pièces ne sont en effet pas très difficiles, mais peut-être aussi pour des raisons commerciales. Leurs mélodies typi-quement schubertiennes et leur vivacité en font des oeuvres pour piano et violon particulière-ment appréciées qui ont toujours été un bestseller du catalogue des éditions Henle (sous l’«ancien» numéro d’édition: HN 6). Schubert les composa en 1816, c’est-à-dire à l’âge de 19 ans. La première édition diffèreparfois de manière assez importante du manuscrit autographe qui a été conservé fort heureusement dans sa totalité, hormis le finale de la 2e sonatine. La première édition a donc été utilisée comme source pour ce mouvement final. / Partition brochée / Répertoire / Violon et Piano
