Product Description

Opus/Catalog Number: Hob. XVI:8
Key/Tone: G Major
Movements/Sections: Allegro - Minuet - Andante - Allegro
Year/Date of Composition: 1766 or before
Difficulty: Grade 5/12 (Intermediate)
Obs.: In Piano Trio in F major, Hob.XV:39, the first Allegro is used as Movement 1 transposed to F major. As each one of Haydn's first keyboard sonatas, this particular Sonata Hob. XVI:8 is written in the light, galant style which was very popular in the mid-18th century.
As the Classical sonata takes its origin in the Baroque suite, Haydn named his first sonatas Divertimenti or Partitas. It is believed that this Sonata Hob. XVI:8 was intended as a teaching piece for Haydn's students.
There exists no autograph version of this sonata, rather, this sonata has survived in the form of manuscript copies made by pupils of Haydn or by his copyists.
