It is not known with certainty who first called Beethoven's fifth Piano Concerto ' The Emperor '; it may have been J. B. Cramer (1771-1858), who is chiefly celehrated nowadays for his pianoforte studies.

Yet the nickname is by no means unsuitable. since the work has a majesty and grandeur unsurpassed by any other concerto. Harold Rutland
