Minuet in G

Postby ChuckH » 17 Feb 2018 10:13

The Minuet in G (No.2) was composed by Beethoven. The original version, written for orchestra, was lost; and only an arrangement for piano exists. This simplified version, from the John Brimhall Easy Classics series, is played mainly as a string ensemble with a section played by plucked strings (pizzicato).

Hi Charles,

That sound very authentic sounded just how I imagine it should sound, enjoyed listening to it.

Hi Charles,

Very pleasant to listen to. The 'plucked strings' (pizzicato) make a nice contrast.
