BEETHOVEN, Ludwig van

Sonata for piano no. 16 in G major op. 31 no. 1

II. Adagio grazioso

Jerome Rose, guest professor

Enrique Lapaz Lombardo, student

Indications about the bass (left hand) and the use of the pedal. "Italian" character, not serious. Phrasing and tempi issues. A particular passage requires sforzando.

Finally, prof. Rose advises the student about the rubati and the use of metrical freedom like in a Chopin Concerto.
