Beethoven for the vacation
on: March 21, 2006, 04:11:02 PM
I´m going on a vacation, and need some music to study and memorize. I was thinking about a Beethoven sonata - where do I begin?

op. 2 no.1 of course!
Never look at the trombones. You'll only encourage them.

Not necessarily.

I'd go for No. 9 (can't remember the opus). I think it's one of the best introductory pieces and still a little challenge. Plus I absolutely love it.
