Rep suggestion: Classical Sonata

[amanfang]

My teacher wants me to work on a classical sonata:  something "crisp, energetic, articulate."  He also said no Beethoven.  The Haydn last 3 sonatas are also out.  Any suggestions?  Mozart?  Other Haydn?  Are there Clementi sonatas I should check out?

Thanks for suggestions.

Mozart D Major, the last, is very energetic, but really hard.  Easier might be the B-flat, K333 (I think). 

Haydn Sonata in F Major, HBK XVI: 23 offers some fine display and technical work without being overly difficult.

how about hob:33;L/34 for Haydn? for Mozart K284?

[amanfang]

I have played that Mozart but will check the Haydn.  Thanks.

[amelialw]

you're welcome

if your an advanced player try wolfel grand sonatas in c minor it'll blow your teachers head off.

HAHA, there must be a hundred ways of spelling that composer. I usually use Woelfl.

If you are referring to the Op25 Sonata, I can only agree. The "Allegro Molto" movement is fantastic and one of the few pieces i have kept in my miserly repetoire.

This is great music.

Are sheets for this sonata available?  I'd love to take a look at it.  Thanks, sir, for any help in this direction.

Check this old chap. A nice alternative to the popular composers.

Thanks for the downloads, Thal.  Read through the sonata and it's a breath of fresh air.

[thalbergmad]

I am pleased you think that.

The forgotten ones were capable of beauty.
