Beethoven: Violin Sonata No.1

Beethoven wrote his first violin sonata in 1798 as part of his Op.12 set. The first movement in particular is very popular as it contains a wealth of ideas and a declamatory opening. The second movement is a set of four variations on a theme, and the jovial final movement is in Rondo form.
