Mandolin Sonatina in C-, WoO44a
Key: C
Year: 1796
Genre: Chamber Sonata
Pr. Instrument: Mandolin

Formally this work is a single-movement rondo. The mandolin leads a dashing rondo theme, pausing for breath only in the contrasting episodes. If you didn't know any better you'd think you were listening to bluegrass. The harpsichord or piano accompanies throughout, occasionally imitating a phrase of the mandolin's.
