Beethoven, L.V. - Serenade in D major, Op. 25
| TITLE: | Serenade in D major, Op. 25 |
| COMPOSER: | Ludwig van Beethoven |
| PUBLISHER: | Henle |
| ED/ARR: | n/a |
| INSTRUMENTATION: | Flute, Violin, Viola |
| DESCRIPTION: | What occasioned Beethoven to write a composition for such an unusual and yet sonorous group of instruments? Was it perhaps commissioned by a nobleman who played music with such a group and needed music? Whatever the reason behind it, opus 25 is one of Beethoven's few chamber music works that did not have a bass instrument. Despite the unusual combination of instruments, Beethoven had no difficulty in finding a publisher for his serenade; shortly afterwards he even turned to the work again and revised an arrangement for flute and piano (op. 41), which had been made by a third party. Our revised edition follows the musical text which will soon be published in volume VI/1 of our new Beethoven Complete Edition. |
