A critical edition of the 35 piano sonatas by Professor Barry Cooper, renowned Beethoven
specialist. Created for today’s performers, teachers and scholars, this is the most
comprehensive study of these extraordinary works yet undertaken.
The National Edition was based on sources originated from the composer, mainly autographs, copies of autographs and first editions with the composer's corrections, and pupils' copies with Chopin's annotations. In cases when original sources were lacking, the closest possible materials were used.
