The dataset has two recordings with CC64 and CC67 markings. Renders below screenshoted from Cubase, is there a better way to render MIDI, esp. in web? Also I’d love to adjoin the tempo track (a-la TuttiTempi?)

Books

Excerpts in a PDF

What’s in there (probably):

• Kinderman - p. 41-43
• Tovey - p. 44 - 49
• Charles Rosen - Beethoven - 134-137
• Edwin Fischer

• Eric Blom pianoforte

• Eileen Stainkamph “Form and analysis of the complete Beethoven’s pianoforte sonatas” - not available anywhere. Sample

• Mark C. Richards. Analyzing Tension and Drama in Beethoven’s First-Movement Sonata Forms

Barry Cooper is skipped for leaning on musicological (i.e. historical) side.

Paul M. Ellison “The Key to Beethoven” - he tries to assign the meaning to key choices. (skipped, esoterics?)

Beethoven-Haus Bonn has early editions and lists a referencing literature which is nowhere to be found :)

• Shiow-Lih Lillian Shieh. a pianist’s reference guide to beethoven’s piano sonatas

We have no idea if Chinese scholars have something valuable to bring to the table. vmus.net doesn’t seem to be useful and seems to be superceded by TuttiTempi, see here
