              patronly counts - Festetics, Esterhazy, Salern, Oppersdorff, Walsegg, Morzin, Bevilacqua, Rochefoucauld, Orlov, Lubomirski, Bardi, Waldstein

              oooooh Waldstein looks good

              Beethoven Sonata 21 also known as L'Aurora - the second movement replaced another which became the Andante favori - now I just need the walk bit

                  Waldstein it is!

                      Beethoven Waldstein Piano Sonata no. 21 in C dedicated to Count F.E.G. von Waldstein

                      sonata is also known as 'L'Aurora' (The Dawn) in Italian, for the sonority of the opening chords of the third movement, which conjures an image of daybreak.
                      Introduzione [second movement] replaced an earlier, longer middle movement, which was later published separately as the Andante favori, WoO 57
