Presentation Certificate

Beethoven composed a total of 32 piano sonatas.

Beethoven, having gone through various periods and personal struggles, significantly developed his piano sonatas in tandem with his emotions and the evolution of the piano. 

Beethoven's Piano Sonata Op. 14, No. 2, is a charming and delightful composition c ompleted in 1799, it showcases Beethoven's early style, blending classical structures with hints of his unique expression.

Mozart's "Alla Turca' is the third movement of  his Piano Sonata No. 11 (K. 331). This sonata is particularly known for Mozart incorporating Turkish elements.  

It features distinctive rhythms and melodies influenced by Turkish music culture. The imitation of Turkish percussion, especially with the piano's right hand, is particularly striking in this movement.

Chopin's music, spanning from "Polonaises" to "Mazurkas," reflects a deep connection to Poland despite his short time there. His identity as the "poet of the piano" was shaped by love for both his homeland and women.

 

In the broader view, human emotions include joy from fulfilled desires, yet reality often brings unmet wishes and melancholy. In this struggle, art, especially music like Chopin's "Treistesse," emerges as a powerful source of solace with its exceptional and timeless melody.

The "Anna Magdalena Bach Notebook" is a collection of music Johann Sebastian Bach dedicated to his wife, Anna Magdalena Bach. It includes pieces for keyboards, chorales, and educational purposes, showcasing Bach's love for family and commitment to music education during his era.

Bach, known for his dedication to music, was also a coffee lover. He even composed the famous "Coffee Cantata" inspired by Leipzig, where coffee addiction was a notable concern.
