Work introduction
Beethoven’s 2nd movement of the Pathétique Sonata (Op. 13) is a beautifully expressive Adagio cantabile, known for its lyrical and singing melody. In this arrangement for three guitars, the voices are carefully distributed to maintain the movement’s warmth and depth, with the main theme flowing smoothly over rich harmonic textures. The interplay between the guitars enhances the piece’s intimate and emotional character, while preserving its classical elegance. This arrangement allows for a nuanced interpretation, bringing out Beethoven’s signature contrasts between tenderness and underlying intensity.
