Winifred Ware (Violin) and Marjorie Jones (Pianoforte)

This Sonata of Beethoven's, for violin and pianoforte, takes its name from the violinist, Rudolph Kreutzer, to whom Beethoven dedicated it, calling him in the dedication 'his friend'. Nothing is known of relations between Beethoven and Kreutzer, and the dedication has always been something of a mystery, although Kreutzer was of course one of the outstanding figures, if not the foremost, in the violin world of Beethoven's day. It was with the English mulatto, Bridgewater, that Beethoven first played the work, and Bridgewater claimed that it was originally dedicated to him. No one knows whether this is so. It is in three Movements, the first and last quick movements, each with two main tunes according to convention, and the middle movement, an air-a long, fine melody, with variations.
