The order of importance of the two instruments is surprisingly inverted from that to which modern times has accustomed us, but listening immediately reveals that the Baroque tradition of considering the violin as a mere accompaniment has disappeared altogether. In the radiant and vital Sonatas Op.12 Beethoven places the two instruments firmly, and forever, on the same level.\r\n\r\nDedicated to one of his teachers in Vienna, Antonio Salieri, the Sonatas Op.12 were received unfavorably by critics because of their unconventional harmonic structure, but their success with the public was attested by the eight reprints in less than ten years. The style of these Sonatas was something radically new. The great innovations of the young Beethoven’s music were the daring use of the full textures of the two instruments, the frequent dynamic contrasts and the unusual use of sforzatos, all in a perfect architectural construction.\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eSalvatore Accardo - Violin\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eStefania Redaelli - Piano\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaria Grazia Bellocchio - Piano\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eLaura Manzini - Piano\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\r\nThe Master has been implemented with Ampex ATR 102 (Electronic Tube Ampex Model 351 - 1965) 2 tracks, 1\/2 inch 30ips modified by David Manley.
