LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770-1827)

Bagatelle for fortepiano in A minor "Für Elise" [For Elise] WoO 57

Poco moto

Performed by Melvyn Tan, fortepiano

*Though scholars don't know for sure who "Elise" was, it is more than likely that this piece was actually dedicated to Therese Malfatti (niece of Beethoven's physician, Dr. Johann Malfatti) to whom, it seems, the composer proposed marriage. The "Elise" may be an incorrect transcription of the title by the discoverer Ludwig Nohl. The autographed manuscript has been lost and the piece itself was not published until 1865.

  • This was painted by a danish painter named, Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg (1783-1853). He painted the 'Woman standing in front of a mirror' in 1841.
