Ludwig van Beethoven - Sonata 10 in G Major Op 14 No 2 | Piano Synthesia | Library of Music

Sonata 10 in G Major Op 14 No 2 is an early period sonata written in 1798-1799 that was dedicated to Baroness Josefa von Braun along with Sonata 9 in E Major Op 14 No 1 - the two form a set.
This work has a rather unusual structure in its three movements: Allegro, Andante, and Scherzo: Allegro Assai. There are three main themes in the first movement, all heard in rapid succession and all ecstatic in their joy and sense of merriment. The exposition is repeated and a fairly elaborate development section ensues. Here, there is some tension, but the thematic transformations and subtle interlacing of the various materials are of greater significance. The recapitulation presents all the themes from the exposition once more, but with some minor changes.
The second movement Andante begins with a proud, march-like theme, quite lively considering the slow tempo. Three variations follow, without any significant change of mood. The second variation emphasizes the rhythmic aspects of the theme, while in the third the left hand takes up the main line, the right supplying the accompaniment. The movement ends with a brief restatement of the theme given in chords by both hands.
The finale begins with a lively theme of considerable keyboard range, with direction changing and movement often hesitant. An alternate theme, a bit less colourful but warmer, appears and provides fine contrast. There is much humour in this high-spirited three-minute movement.
