Andante (G major) The Eight Songs, Op. 52, are best thought of as an “anthology“ of early works. Although published on 16 June 1805 in Vienna by Kunst- und Industrie-Comptoir, the songs were all written at least a decade earlier; most while Beethoven lived in Bonn. The probable dates of composition are as follows: “Urians Reise um die Welt“ (before 1790?), “Feuerfarb’“ (1792, rev. 1793-94)
