Appassionata (1944 Film)
Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 23 in F minor, Op. 57 (colloquially known as the ''Appassionata'', meaning "passionate" in Italian) is among the three famous piano sonatas of his middle period (the others being the ''Waldstein'', Op. 53 and ''Les Adieux'', Op. 81a); it was composed during 1804 and 1805, and perhaps 1806, and Beethoven dedicated it to cellist and his friend, Count . The first edition was published in February 1807 in Vienna. Unlike the early Sonata No. 8, ''Pathétique'', the ''Appassionata'' was not named during the composer's lifetime, but was so labelled in 1838 by the publisher of a four-hand arrangement of the work. Instead, Beethoven's autograph manuscript of the sonata has "La Pasionata" written on the cover, in Beethoven's hand. One of his greatest and most technically challenging piano sonatas, the ''Appassionata'' was considered by Beethoven to be his most tempestuous piano sonata until the twenty-ninth piano sonata (known as the ''Hammerk ...
