About this arrangement

Violin & piano SKU: HH.HH473-FSP Composed by Anton Eberl. Edited by Martin Harlow. Violin & Piano. Full score and part. Edition HH Music Publishers #HH473-FSP. Published by Edition HH Music Publishers (HH.HH473-FSP). ISBN 9790708146841.The model for this sonata is Mozart, specifically his Sonata in B flat major, K.454, written in 1784. Eberl borrows many structural and stylistic features from K.454: the grand, slow introduction of the first movement; the song-like second movement opening over rocking accompaniment; and the gavotte-like closing rondo. Eberl even quotes directly from K.454. But the work also looks forward to Beethoven’s contributions to the genre, and in its duration, formal and harmonic novelty, and in the lively relationship between the violin and keyboard, Op.50 shares much of the musical ambition and quality of Beethoven’s early works in this genre.
