Beethoven Complete Piano Sonatas Volume I. Edited by Harold Craxton. Annotated by Donald Francis Tovey.

Par BEETHOVEN LUDWIG VAN. The newly revised edition of Ludwig van Beethoven's piano sonatas in the Wiener Urtext Edition is the only one of the more recent Urtext editions on a broad source basis. It includes not only autographs, verified copies and first editions, but also early reprints published during the composer's lifetime and Haslinger's Complete Edition. This is especially important for those sonatas of which neither autographs nor transcriptions are preserved. The edition contains a critical report in German and English, in which the complex source problems of these sonatas are explained in a comprehensible way and the editorial decisions are comprehensibly justified. This makes the band an indispensable tool in the study of these outstanding works of piano literature./ Répertoire / Piano

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.
