When Christa Landon presented the first printed version of her edition of Joseph Haydn's Piano sonatas Haydn's sonata oeuvre was still overshadowed by the works of Mozart and Beethoven. Since then Haydn's sonatas have progressed from the teaching rooms to the concert halls and Landon's edition has played a crucial role in that process. The Haydn anniversary in 2009 is a welcome occasion to thoroughly revise this 'legendary' edition for over the course of more than forty years new sources have come to light and questions of authenticity have been resolved not least because the editorial principles for 18th-centurymusic have changed considerably. The new edition comprises all works of the previous Wiener Urtext edition plus the sonata Hob. XVI:16 edited by Landon along with the Sonata in F major which was rediscovered in Bozen a few years ago and attributed to Joseph Haydn. The new edition is published in four volumes the content of each volume being compatible with the volumes of the previous edition. Volumes 1 and 2 contain the early sonatas. In the Notes on Interpretation Robert D. Levin explains important aspects of Haydn's performance practice.

Piano Sonata no. 4 in Eb major op. 7-Carl Czerny wrote the following about Ludwig van Beethoven?s ?Grande Sonate? Op. 7 published in 1797: ?The epithet appassionata would fit much better to the Sonata in E flat Op. 7 which he wrote in a very impassioned mood?. As to whether the reason behind his passionate music was the composer?s attraction for his then 16-year-old pupil Anna Luise Barbara Countess von Keglevich remains open. It might be thatthe dedicatee?s father commissioned Beethoven to write the work for his daughter. We are publishing the sonata in a revised single edition by Norbert Gertsch and Murray Perahia the introduction and fingerings wereprovided by the latter one of the foremost interpreters of Beethoven?s Piano music.

Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 26 in E Flat ‘Les Adieux’ was written around the spring of 1809 when the French army attacked Vienna and Beethoven's friend patron and pupil Archduke Rudolph was forced to flee the city for many months. Beethoven wrote the words ‘On the departure of His Majesty the revered Archduke Rudolph’ in French at the head of the score of this most recent project Op. 81a. The first published edition of the Sonata from 1811 also has titles at the head of each of the sonata’s three movements: ‘Les Adieux’ (The Farewell) ‘L’Absence’ (The Absence) and ‘Le Retour’ (The Return) but it is not known as to whether these titles were inserted at Beethoven’sdirections or if they were added by the Publisher. Whatever the case may be there can be no doubt that Les Adieux is genuine evidence of one friend's care for another and it is no surprise that the piece is better known for its titles than for its magnificent music.

Op. 31-With his sonatas Op.31 composed in 1802 Beethoven for the last time grouped together piano sonatas under one opus number. The centrepiece of the collection is undoubtedly the dramatic Sonata in D minor nicknamed »Tempest« which already fascinated his contemporaries. According to Anton Schindler who asked the composer about the „key“ to this work as well as to the sonata Op.57 (»Appassionata«) Beethoven advised him: “Just read Shakespeare’s Tempest”.
