    On my new Beethoven picture as you will have seen, it is a facsimilie of one of his music sheets and he had wrote, sonata no 32 a- why a?

        OK but I can't read the writing clearly on your photo - are you sure it isn't a c which would make sense as the piece is in C minor?

              I don't think that 'sonata 32 a - ' is written in Beethoven's hand. Certainly the writing above with the date of 1843 cannot be!

                I coudn't make out the date very well- I am useless at reading old fashioned writing! So you think all the writing is what someone else wrote in 1843 above a manuscript of sonata no. 32?

                  Yes certainly, possibly the publisher. It is strange I can sort of make out the names Haslinger and Madame Wartel. Also the word 'souvenir'. This work was published by Maurice Schlesinger in Paris, though Beethoven did send another autograph score to Adolph Martin Schlesinger in Berlin.

                    Thanks for that Peter.
