Violin Sonata No. 5 (Beethoven)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Violin Sonata No. 5 in F major, Opus 24, is a violin sonata by Ludwig van Beethoven. 
It is often known as the "Spring" sonata (Frühlingssonate), and was published in 1801. 
Its dedicatee was Count Moritz von Fries, a patron^[1] to whom the fourth violin sonata, the string quintet of the same year, and the seventh symphony were also dedicated.

The work is in four movements:

1. Allegro
2. Adagio molto espressivo
3. Scherzo: Allegro molto
4. Rondo: Allegro ma non troppo

The Scherzo and its trio are particularly brief. The entire sonata takes approximately 22 minutes to perform.

The Allegro movement is featured in stage show "Fame".

[edit]Notes

1. ^ Fries was also a travelling companion to Giovanni Battista Casti, a playwright and rival of Lorenzo da Ponte, and an influence on Mozart at a pivotal point in his operatic work, according to Alfred Einstein'sMozart: His Character, His Work.
