Description

Haydn's C major Piano Sonata is a well-known work, with its fanfare-like, staccato triadic opening. However, the cantabile central movement and playful finale are lesser-known, though equally charming. This sonata deserves a place in advanced piano instruction, which is why Henle is publishing it not only as part of the revised three-volume collected edition of Haydn's piano sonatas, but also in this practical single-volume edition. The new accompanying texts by Silke Schloen, from the Haydn Institute's Research Centre, along with the fingering by Dénes Várjon, will inspire both beginners and proficient pianists. This is an invitation for all to rediscover this classic work.
