Sonata No. 4 in E-flat major, Op. 7 was referred to by Beethoven himself as the "Grande" - indeed, it is the largest before the "Hammerklavier". It was published in 1797 and dedicated to his student, the Countess Babette von Keglewics, later the Princess Odescalchi.
The Grammy award-winning pianist Daniel Barenboim has been active on the concert stage since the age of seven when he made his stage debut in his hometown of Buenos Aires. Well known for his work with the East-Western Divan Orchestra, a group of young Arab and Israeli musicians, he is currently the director of the Berlin State Opera, La Scala (Milan) and the Staatskapelle Berlin. Barenboim is described as "one of the few musicians in the world today who could accurately be describe as legendary".

Fantástico Barenboim todo un Maestro.🎹🎹🎹

[@huwedwards839]

Amazing - and just that bit faster than most can manage

[@nele218]

Most play it slower because of the octaves part and trill-like "sub-coda" so to say

[@mindanielj.9479]

That’s it I’m saying it: Daniel Barenboim is the best at playing Beethoven

[@nabeelhayek402]

It was dedicated to his student Gräfin Babette von Keglevich. Not Haydn.

[@ethanq8297]

Yes. But don't make them edit it. It'll take some time

[@stefanufer608]

Several of these films erroneously state the sonata was dedicated to Haydn. Only Opus 2 was.

Third movement at 18:38

18:37 III. Allegro

[@kelvynchin1968]

Is this better than the Op 22? It could be ! Great, love it!

This is a mental note for myself lol

[@peterbrenton410]

Largo is very slow. I notice in my score says crotchet 48. he does it around 30.

[@volkerf.sesselmann6783]

Ich liebe diese möglicherweise viel zu langsame Version.
