Sketches for Beethoven’s Piano Sonata in E, Opus 109, Second Movement
Dr. William Kinderman
Draft 9
Draft 9a is of the exposition to the development sections. Beginning on page 47, stave 6-7, it continues above it to staves 4-5, then on to stave 9 (the
crossed-out version), to stave 10, to stave 11-12, to stave 13-14, finally
continuing to page 48, staves 1 and 2. Upon going
through page 48, it continues through the whole of
page 49
(choosing a clean reading among the alternatives), and on to
page 50. It finally ends taking the cancelled version
of the cadence on staves 7-8.
Draft 9b begins on page 47 after stave 4-5, but
taking up again on page 46, stave 10-11. It then goes
to the recapitulation on the lowest system of page 47
(fifth bar from the right side), and then on through pages
48, 49, and
50. It ends by finding the later version of the
cadence on page 50, stave 11 through 13-14, left
side.
