Summary of This Score
This collection offers 12 original piano pieces developed from Beethoven's iconic motifs: nods to the "Moonlight" (Mondscheinsonate), "Waldstein," "Pathétique," and "Appassionata" sonatas, as well as evocations of major orchestral works like Symphonies No. 5, No. 6, No. 7, and No. 9. Each piece is conceived as a short, melodious, and evocative sound vignette that transforms a well-known theme into a new atmosphere.
The writing encourages repetition "in the manner of mantras": one quickly internalizes the musical cells, then works on gesture continuity, sound quality, balance of layers, and phrasing. An excellent resource to vary piano sessions, enrich your repertoire with short pieces, and rediscover Beethoven's universe from a creative angle.
