A group of usually three or four related pieces that follow certain conventions regarding form. Beethoven answered this question with thirty-two sonatas, and each one explored and redefined the genre. Opus 109 is one of the last three sonatas, renowned for their condensation of musical materials—“more music per minute” as it has been said. Beethoven juxtaposes contrasting ideas, forcing listeners to build their own connections to understand the coherence. The last movement is a set of variations, each with its own powerfully unique character, building to a long set of shimmering trills like a celestial vision.
