The right hand opens playing [read slowly]
In a piano piece by this composer, an odd syncopated rhythm appears in the third of six variations in an Arietta in 9/16 ("nine-sixteen") time; that piece's other movement is marked Maestoso. He's not Chopin, but a piano sonata by this composer opens with an Andante con variazioni in 3/8 ("three-eight") time and contains a third-movement funeral march. The right hand opens playing [read slowly] "B, D D G G B" against left-hand staccato chords in a late rondo that this composer inadvertently called ingharese ("een-gah-REH-zeh"). The notes [read slowly] "E D-sharp E D-sharp E, B D C A" begin this composer's Bagatelle No. 25 in A minor. His late piano pieces include a set of 33 variations on a C minor waltz, a piece nicknamed "Rage Over a Lost Penny," and a sonata called "Waldstein." For 10 points, name this composer of the Diabelli Variations and "Für Elise" ("FYOOR eh-LEE-zuh").
