Beethoven's three piano sonatas op. 2 were the first works in this genre to which he gave an opus number, thus signalling to the musical world the special importance that he assigned to them. He wrote them during his first years in Vienna and, along with his op. 1 piano trios, they helped to establish his reputation as one of the most significant composers of his time. These three sonatas - all of them small masterpieces - are arranged in ascending order of difficulty and virtuosity. The four-movement Sonata in f minor is often called the “Little Appassionata” because it shares with the famous Sonata op. 57 not just its key, but also its impassioned mood - especially in the last movement. Murray Perahia's fingerings have been tried and tested over several decades of performing these works, and offer a new approach to these milestones of the piano repertoire. Replaces HN183.

William Phemister, former Professor of Piano at Wheaton College, has a justly deserved reputation as a fine pianist, teacher, and composer. Therefore, we are proud to present Hymns of Creation, his first book of piano solos published with Lorenz. These selections are for the advanced pianist, and will require some extra practice time, but the results will be worth the time invested. Selected lyrics from each hymn are written below the music, and highlight the arranger's close attention to effectively text-painting each word. In addition to their use in the sanctuary, these arrangements are perfect for concert and recital settings as well.
