Hello forum!

Can you suggest me any lesser known pieces from our Ludwig Van Beethoven?
Ive got many great suggestions on earlier Johann Sebastian Bach posts. Hopefully there are some piano treasures on Beethovens music to!

Regards,

I'm not sure if you'd call the Bagatelles (Op. 33, 119, and 126) lesser known, but they are all great and sometimes very unusual smaller works of Beethoven. A bit further off the beaten path is one of my favorite little gems of his, the Allegretto in b minor, WoO 61.

Regards,

John

I would definitely look at his Variations -- I believe Henle has 2 separate Volumes to cover them. Beethoven generally took a popular operatic aria or theme of the day and wrote anywhere from 4 to 10 variations on them. The writing is generally original and ingenious, and gives one a good introduction to his quite unique writing for piano.

Have a look at his Fantasy Op. 77 and the Polonaise Op. 89. Both charming works and unjustly neglected, in my opinion.
