This sonata was originally composed for piano with obbligato violin and cello. Subsequently, Pleyel arranged it for piano and flute. This edition has taken ideas from both Pleyel versions and has produced a historically-informed transcription for piano and cello, in line with tradition of the 1780s. This happy work is bound to brighten any recital program. Although both piano and cello are more or less equal partners, this work should be billed as "Sonata for Pianoforte and Violoncello," as was the custom of the period.
