The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

Clementi - Sonata in C major
on: February 04, 2007, 09:52:36 PM
I have no idea what the opus is, only that its C major. It starts with a big C major chord followed by an ascending staccato run in thirds i think. The title says Op.36 No.3, but that is the opusnumber of 6 sonatinas.

Anyone have a clue here?

It is indeed the Op33 no 3 cause it is the same as the one Horowitz plays.

I have not got the score, but it is not hard to get as it is published by Schirmer and is still in print.

In Klaus Wolters' "Handbuch der Klavierliteratur zu zwei Händen" the author tells, that Clementi did sell in a few cases the same compositions under different opus numbers to several publishers  :o  ;D

So there are the wellknown Six Sonatinas  op.36

and also Three Sonatas op.36, also published as op.32

There is also a Sonata in A Major op.33 no.3 (published also as op.1 no.5)

In Edition Peters, 12 Sonatas are published in 2 books.

The Sonata C Major op.36 no.3 (in the Horowitz recording numbered as op.33 no.3) is the first of book 2. (I only have book 1)
If it doesn't work - try something different!
