Boris Giltburg groups four Beethoven piano sonatas in contrasting pairs:
Sonata No. 5 in C minor and the Waldstein Sonata
Sonata No. 19 in G minor and Sonata No. 25 in G major
Piano Sonata No. 30 in E
Each pair sets an early minor work beside a middle-period major sonata. The nervous drama of No. 5 contrasts with the heroic grandeur of the Waldstein Sonata. Melancholy and playfulness contrast in Nos. 19 and 25. The late No. 30 closes the recital, recalling Beethoven's early style and looking ahead to 20th-century music.
