Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13, commonly known as ''フランス語:Sonata Pathétique'', was written in 1798 when the composer was 27 years old, and was published in 1799. It has remained one of his most celebrated compositions.〔Craig Wright, ''Listening to Western Music'', pp. 209–12. Cengage Learning.〕 Beethoven dedicated the work to his friend Prince Karl von Lichnowsky.〔(Beethoven Pathetique Sonata Op. 13 ) All About Beethoven. Retrieved May 1, 2008.〕 Although commonly thought to be one of the few works to be named by the composer himself, it was actually named ''フランス語:Grande sonate pathétique'' (to Beethoven's liking) by the publisher, who was impressed by the sonata's tragic sonorities.〔Burkhart, Charles: ''Anthology for Musical Analysis'', p. 233. Schirmer 2004.〕 Prominent musicologists debate whether or not the ''フランス語:Pathétique'' may have been inspired by Mozart's piano sonata K. 457, since both compositions are in C minor and have three very similar movements. The second movement, "Adagio cantabile", especially, makes use of a theme remarkably similar to that of the spacious second movement of Mozart's sonata.〔Marks, F. Helena. (''The Sonata: Its Form and Meaning as Exemplified in the Piano Sonatas by Mozart'' ). W. Reeves, London, 1921.〕 However, Beethoven's sonata uses a unique motif line throughout, a major difference from Haydn or Mozart’s creation.〔 == Movements == In its entirety, encompassing all three movements, the work takes approximately 19 minutes to perform. The sonata consists of three movements: #''Grave'' (Slowly, with solemnity) – ''Allegro di molto e con brio'' (Quickly, with much vigour) #''Adagio cantabile'' (Slowly, in a singing style) #''Rondo: Allegro'' (Quickly) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Piano Sonata No. 8 (Beethoven)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
