String Trios op. 3 8 and 9 and String Duo WoO 32-Comme on peut le déduire de leurs numéros d?opus les cinq trios à cordes sont des ?uvres relativement précoces. Beethoven fit imprimer l?opus 3 au début de l?année 1796 et commença à écrire la sérénade op. 8 au cours de la même année bientôt suivie par les trois trios op. 9. Par la suite Beethoven abandonna ce genre et n?y revint plus. Ces cinq pièces sont pourtant du pur Beethoven et continuent à être volontiers régulièrement jouées. Dans le même volume figure le morceau désigné dans le manuscrit autographe comme un «duo avec deux lunettes obligées» que Beethoven destinait manifestement à deux amis atteints de myopie.

Op. 2 Nr. 1-Beethoven's three piano sonatas op. 2 were the first works in this genre to which he gave an opus number thus signalling to the musical world the special importance that he assigned to them. He wrote them during his first yearsin Vienna and along with his op. 1 piano trios they helped to establish his reputation as one of the most significant composers of his time. These three sonatas all of them small masterpieces are arranged in ascending orderof difficulty and virtuosity. The four-movement Sonata in f minor is often called the 'Little Appassionata' because it shares with the famous Sonata op. 57 not just its key but also its impassioned mood especially in the lastmovement. Murray Perahia's fingerings have been tried and tested over several decades of performing these works and offer a new approach to these milestones of the piano repertoire.
