Beethoven - Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13 'Pathetique'

Composed: 1798Genres: Instrumental » Piano Solos » Piano Sonatas Dedicated to: Prince Karl von Lichnowsky

Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, Op. 13, commonly known as Sonata Pathétique, was written in 1798 when the composer was 27 years old, and was published in 1799. It has remained one of his most celebrated compositions. Beethoven dedicated the work to his friend Prince Karl von Lichnowsky. Although commonly thought to be one of the few works to be named by the composer himself, it was actually named Grande sonate pathétique (to Beethoven's liking) by the publisher, who was impressed by the sonata's tragic sonorities.
