My own interpretations have benefited enormously from Somfai's work, and every serious student of this repertoire should consider this study essential.\" - Malcolm Bilson, Cornell University\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface Abbreviations  1: Keyboard Instruments in Haydn's Time  2: For What Kind of Instrument Did Haydn Compose?  3: The Choice of Instruments for Present-Day Performers  4: An Introduction to Reading the Conventions of the Notation (Grace Notes,Ornaments)  5: Notation and Part Writing  6: Touch and Articulation  7: Haydn's Notation of Dynamics and Accents  8: Thoughts on Tempos in Haydn's Style  9: Early Divertimento and Partita Sonatas  10: The Mature Solo Piano Sonatas: A Survey with Historical Hypotheses  11: Originality and Personal Language: The Options of Analytic Methods  12: Survey and Classification  13: Grammar, Syntax, and Analytic Terminology  14: Exposition Strategies  15: The Primary Theme  16: Continuation: Secondary Group, Closing Group, and Fantasia-Like Insertions  17: Strategies of the Development Section  18: Recapitulation  19: Sonata Form and Scherzo Form in the Finale  20: Sonata Forms in Slow Tempos  21: Minuets  22: Rondos and Fast Variation Forms  23: Slow Variations and Double Variations  24: Fantasia and Capriccio Catalog of the Sonatas: Data and Guide Select Bibliography Index Ornament Locator Thematic Locator","brand":"The University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49400113398103,"sku":"9780226768144","price":76.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780226768144.jpg?v=1730469767","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-keyboard-sonatas-of-joseph-haydn-instruments-performance-practice-genres-styles-instruments-and-performance-practice-genres-and-styles-phoenix-poets-hardcover-9780226768144","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
