In May of 1802, the “Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung” praised the<br />
violin sonatas op. 23 and 24 as being “... among the best Beethoven<br />
has written, which is to say that they are among the best being<br />
written at all. The composer’s original, fiery and bold spirit …<br />
becomes more and more apparent now ...”<br />
The time during which Beethoven composed his “Spring Sonata”,<br />
which was to become increasingly popular during the course of the<br />
19 th century, was marked by a frantic surge of compositional<br />
creativity. “I live only in my notes, and with one work barely finished,<br />
the other is already started; the way I write now I often find myself<br />
working on three, four things at the same time.”, he wrote in a letter<br />
to Wegeler on 29 June 1801. However during this time, Beethoven also<br />
suffered from the rapid deterioration of his hearing, a fact he was<br />
still trying to hide and that the enchanting “Spring Sonata” certainly<br />
does not divulge.<br />
