Duo für Violine und Violoncello

Ludwig van Beethoven wrote his Duo For Violin And Violoncello whilst he was still in Bonn, perhaps in 1792, the year he departed for Vienna. It is not known whether he completed his work as only thebeginning of a fast sonata movement has survived. It is on a page in a collection of sketch leaves that is today known as the “Kafka Miscellany”. Robert D. Levin has completed this fragment in the same style and thus for the firsttime it is in a version that can be performed.

This Henle Edition contains two performance scores of the lively showpiece, thus guaranteeing an optimal duo experience. A welcome addition to the repertoire.
