Beethovens Nachlasse vollendet vorgefundene Capriccio ist im Manuscripte folgender Massen betitelt: Die Wuth über den verlornen Groschen, ausgetobt in einer Caprice."
Spine of outer bifolium reinforced with marbled paper; spine of wrappers reinforced with matching dark green tape. Title browned; lower margin imperfectly trimmed; final leaf creased at upper right outer corner with very slight loss to lower right blank corner; one signature loose.
First Edition. Kinsky pp. 390-91. Hoboken 2, 514 (with watermarks not found on present copy). Hirsch IV, 401. Beethoven-Haus (C 129/1 and copies in the H.C. Bodmer and van der Spek collections).
The correct title of the work is "Alla Ingharese quasi un Capriccio." Its popular title, "Rage over a Lost Penny," is spurious; the title in the manuscript is not in Beethoven's hand. Composed between 1795 and 1798, the capriccio was published only after Beethoven's death. Item #23013
