Beethoven: Cello Sonata No.4 in C

Beethoven composed his fourth and fifth cello sonatas together in 1815. The fourth has an unusual structure in that it has two fast movements preceded by slow introductions, indeed Beethoven's willingness to experiment with structure pervades this whole sonata. It is a brief but memorable work, lasting around 15 minutes in performance.
