Clementi, Muzio. (1752-1832)

Three sonatas for the piano forte, with an accompanyment obligato for a violin. Opera XV. De?die?s a? Mademoiselle Marie Victoire Imbert Colome?s de Lyon.

London: Printed for the author & to be had of him, at No. 20, Goodge Stt. Tottenham Ct. Road. [1786]. First Edition. Oblong full score, 24 x 34 cme. 36 pp. Engraved throughout. Disbound, unfortunately with scotch-tape along the spine but otherwise in good, clean condition throughout.


Scarce first edition from the English composer, keyboard player and teacher, music publisher and piano manufacturer of Italian birth. His influence on following generations of pianists and piano composers is hard to overestimate and Beethoven's earlier keyboard writing seems unmistakenly indebted to Clementi's music of the 1780s and 1790s.
