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 />
