• Whenever one speaks about Beethoven s piano music, it is usually his sonatas that come to mind. However, his other works for this instrument are of no less significance. Thus it is not a coincidence that Beethoven published the majority of his Bagatellen with an opus number, as this went hand in hand with a certain regard for the pieces in question: they represent Beethoven s lighter, more accessible side, disproving his all too hastily attributed reputation as a master of the weighty and serious.
