Ludwig van Beethoven's Sonatas for Piano and Violin should be considered chamber music, rather than violin solos with accompaniment.  Beethoven, being primarily a keyboard player, wrote intricate, challenging parts for the pianist, matching (and occasionally exceeding) the virtuosity of the violin part.  Thus, the sonatas should be approached as musical dialogues between two equal parties.

The Henle Urtext edition of these great sonatas by Beethoven is edited by Sieghard Brandenburg, with fingerings in the piano part by Hans-Martin Theopold, and in the violin part by Max Rostal.  This volume contains Beethoven’s Sonatas 1 - 5, including the famous Spring” Sonata.
