Description

Haydn's piano sonatas are essential works in the moderately challenging piano repertoire. This is not just because of their technical accessibility, but also their wit and creativity. In addition to several individual movements of relative ease, this collection includes two complete sonatas, allowing performers to explore the full dramatic arc of multi-movement compositions. We have also included delightful piano arrangements that Haydn made of his own works, such as the slow movement from his String Quartet Op. 76, No. 3, whose theme is now widely recognized as the German national anthem.
