 Ludwig van Beethoven-Complete Piano Sonatas December 11, 1999
Colin Aherne (Kingsley, PA)
86 out of 92 found this review helpful
This book is an excellent value! For only about 10 bucks you receive over 350 pages of music in a high quality book. It opens flat, and doesn't fall off the piano while you're using it. The binding has not cracked or split, and shows no signs of doing so. I would pay twice as much as I did for this book.
Cheap, Well-Printed, Good Fingerings, Schenker's Footnotes February 1, 2005
J Scott Morrison (Middlebury VT, USA)
30 out of 30 found this review helpful
This is a reprint of one volume of the two volume set of the legendary 1923 Universal Editions set of all 32 Beethoven Piano Sonatas in Heinrich Schenker's scrupulous edition, complete with his footnotes and an explanatory introduction. Physically the book (and its companion comprising the rest of the sonatas) is well done. It lies flat, the binding doesn't crack (or at least mine hasn't in several years' usage), the printing is legible, the fingerings are easy to read and generally pretty apt. This book and its companion have had a lot of use and they're still in pretty good shape. And, of course, they provide many hours of pleasure at the piano.
Perhaps best of all is that Dover's price won't break anyone's bank. I don't know how Dover does it, but I have bought many of their scores--not just Beethoven--with general satisfaction.
Great value for the price you pay! March 21, 2001

This Dover edition of the Beethoven Sonatas is a great buy! The book is binded well and will last you many years. I own volume 1 and 2 and after 5 plus years of abuse, the book lies flat, the binding doesn't crack or split, and the pages aren't discolored. In addition, the score is well edited with dynamics and fingering notations. The editor also left plenty of space for you to write in notes. Compared with the Henle edition, this book is cheaper and it will last longer.
Best Edition Of The Sonatas July 27, 2003
Alan Beggerow (Rock Falls, IL USA)

I've looked at various other editions of the sonatas, but none of them has eclipsed this edition for me. The music is printed well, and I especially like the fingerings that are included. Worth at least twice the price!
Kick Booty Beethoven Book May 20, 2000
27 out of 32 found this review helpful
I got this book about 1 1/2 years ago and it still kicks booty. Its so cheap I don't have to worry about it getting all torn up like those Henle additions, and despite the fact that the book is so cheap, it is edited by a well known scholar of the early 20th century. I HIGHLY recommened this book for people interested in simply following along with the music or learning from it for your college graduate recital!
