“Thes
e real masterpieces, even
if only a few minutes
long, are of tremendous
melodiousness and
expressiveness!”,
Franz Schubert said about
Friedrich Kuhlau's
sonatinas.
The
four Sonatinas Op. 88
were written in 1827,
i.e. during Friedrich
Kuhlau's middle creative
period, even before the
great success of the
opera
“Elfenhügel.&r
dquo; and the year of
Beethoven's death. All
four works contain
beautiful melodic ideas,
but Sonatina Op. 88 No. 3
with its minor tonality,
its free treatment of
form and tempo in the
first movement and the
lively last movement is
something special. Of
medium difficulty, this
sonatina is great fun to
play.
This edition
is accompanied by a
preface and
“Teaching
Notes” by Monika
Twelsiek. It is part of
the new Schott Student
Edition series which
offers varied literature
at five different levels
of difficulty, from 1
(easy) to 5 (difficult),
for instrumental lessons.
