Next to the Moonlight and the Waldstein Sonatas, the Appassionata is no doubt the most celebrated of Beethoven’s piano sonatas and claims, with the latter two works, a new high point in the composer’s piano oeuvre. With even Lenin weighing in with the words: “Such miraculous works can only be made by man,” what is there left to say!

Curiously, the nickname Appassionata appeared for the first time in 1838 in a transcription of the sonata for piano four-hands published by the Cranz Verlag in Hamburg; although this designation did not originate with Beethoven, it is nowadays inseparably connected with the work. It fits splendidly with the dramatic contrasts of the first movement, the solemnity and inwardness of the second and the demonic passion of the third.

除了《月光》和《華爾斯坦奏鳴曲》之外，《熱情》無疑是貝多芬最著名的鋼琴奏鳴曲，並聲稱後兩首作品是作曲家鋼琴作品的新高點。 連列寧都說：“這樣的奇蹟只能由人來製作”，還有什麼好說的！

奇怪的是，1838 年，在漢堡 Cranz Verlag 出版的鋼琴四手奏鳴曲的抄本中，綽號 Appassionata 首次出現。 儘管這個名稱並非源自貝多芬，但如今它與作品密不可分。 它與第一樂章的強烈對比，第二樂章的莊嚴和內斂，第三樂章的惡魔般的激情形成了絕妙的對比。
