STEIBELT STEIBELT 687<br />
for instance, from the Andante <strong>of</strong>the first Sonata,<br />
in op. 37,<br />
was an unheard-<strong>of</strong> thing in 1799. Of course,<br />
nothing is easier than to carry such innovations<br />
to excess, <strong>and</strong> he may be fairly said to<br />
have overstepped the line when in the working-out<br />
'<br />
<strong>of</strong> his Sonata for pian<strong>of</strong>orte <strong>and</strong> violin<br />
'<br />
in E minor, op. 32, he introduces the second<br />
subject in Eb major, changing the signature<br />
for fifty -six bars. Many other instances <strong>of</strong><br />
such boldness are to be found.<br />
The list <strong>of</strong> his works which follows has been<br />
compiled with considerable trouble. Not only<br />
had Steibelt a careless <strong>and</strong>, it is to be feared,<br />
dishonest habit, <strong>of</strong> publishing different works<br />
under the same opus number, <strong>and</strong> the same or<br />
a slightly altered work under different numbers,<br />
but, according to his own protest already mentioned,<br />
works were published under his name<br />
with which he had nothing to do. In such<br />
circumstances the task <strong>of</strong> drawing up a complete<br />
<strong>and</strong> accurate list is well-nigh hopeless, <strong>and</strong> this<br />
catalogue, though compiled with all the care<br />
possible, does not pr<strong>of</strong>ess to be more than a<br />
contribution towards a complete <strong>and</strong> exact list.<br />
An asterisk attached to a work mesins that it<br />
certainly contains one sonata (or the number<br />
given) <strong>and</strong> 7nay contain more. A date has<br />
been added in some cases, where it seemed<br />
likely to be <strong>of</strong> any value.<br />
