The Immortal 32: Lifschitz’s Beethoven Cycle Programme IV

This event is part of the Complete Cycle of Beethoven’s Piano Sonatas 

Piano Sonata No. 13 in E-flat major, Op. 27, No. 1
Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor, Op. 27, No. 2, ‘Moonlight’
Piano Sonata No. 15 in D major, Op. 28, ‘Pastoral’
Piano Sonata No. 16 in G major, Op. 31, No. 1

Beethoven continued to experiment with the four-movement form with his Op. 27. The slow first movement of the so-called ‘Moonlight’ Sonata (Op. 27, No. 2) evokes an image of a serene mossonlit night. Op. 28 is no less poetic than ‘Moonlight’. It was given its nickname ‘Pastoral’ by Beethoven’s publisher for its rustic character.
