"Dawn" has three movements. Except for the relatively short second movement, the first and third movements have a relatively large structure and very comprehensive technical types. The first movement is level 13, the second movement is level 6, and the third movement is level 14.
This sonata, full of poetic nature, was composed at the same time as the "Eroica" symphony. These two outstanding works profoundly reflect Beethoven's understanding of life, society and nature from different angles. The "Eroica" symphony focuses on revealing Beethoven's view of heroes, while the "Dawn" sonata clearly reflects Beethoven's view of nature. His love for nature, the spiritual power and philosophical inspiration he gained from nature are all fully reflected in this sonata.

Creative background
The piano sonata is to Beethoven, just like the piano concerto is to Mozart, it is the most important form in his works. It’s also a genre that he’s really been creating from beginning to end. Roman, an expert on Beethoven Roland has pointed out that Beethoven's major changes in music were brewing in the "Appassionata" and then matured in the "Eroica Symphony".
At the end of his life, he rarely used other genres, but still wrote otherworldly late sonatas, including the "Everest of the Piano" and Beethoven's Conceit The Hammerklavier Sonata would not be performed until fifty years later. It can be seen that Beethoven's sonatas are a reflection of his inner heart and reflect his real efforts in music. Later generations called his piano sonata the "New Testament" of the piano, and it was well deserved.
