Three Sonatinas, No.1, (Ludwig van Beethoven)

Sonatina in F, Op. 168 No. 1 by A. Diabelli (movement 1)

Decided to try this classical piece. This is the 1st movement, marked Moderato cantabile composed by Austrian composer, Anton Diabelli. "He is most familiar today as the composer of the waltz on which Ludwig van Beethoven wrote his set of thirty-three Diabelli Variations". Quoted from Wikipedia. A very calming piece. Sorry this sonatina is cut up in pieces, but you can view the 2nd and 3rd movements that follow this video. Enjoy!
