I have played K3, K46, the famous E major one (K number forgotten), and sight-read the first volume of Kirkpatrick's sonata edition.  It's not a lot.  Sigh.  Maybe when my pieces are  done, I will have more time ...

My favourites right now are K52 in d minor (Horowitz) and K140 in D major, which I regard as a superior brother to the famous K96, although I have never heard a recording of this piece.  For some reason, everyone seems to prefer K141.
Always play as though a master listened.
