Beethoven Sonatas (Liszt Bosworth edition)
on: December 13, 2023, 04:32:27 AM
Hi, anyone know where to find a digital copy of the Liszt Bosworth edition of the Beethoven Piano Sonatas? I believe this version has the difficulty of each Sonata (According to Liszt I'm guessing) and has his fingerings, and possibly even tempos. I've seen a lot of physical copies for sale, but I prefer reading them digitally. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to disappoint you, but Liszt didn't edit this edition.
Liszts only Beethoven edition was published by Holle in 1857. It hardly contains any MM or fingerings and is published in the normal, chronological order of the 32 with some sonatinas added.
Bosworth dates after his death and was published by Conrad Kühner, who added all the rest including the publication order.
