About the piece
A four-hand sonata of the kind Diabelli wrote in quantity, typically with one part considerably easier than the other so that a teacher and pupil, or a parent and child, could play together.
The device is practical and generous: the beginner gets a manageable line while hearing a full musical texture, which is far more encouraging than practising alone.
The composer
Anton Diabelli
1781–1858
Anton Diabelli was an Austrian music publisher, editor, and composer. Best known in his time as a publisher, he is most familiar today as the composer of the waltz on which Ludwig van Beethoven wrote his set of thirty-three Diabelli Variations.
