Sonate for klaver i g-mol

Piano Sonata in G Minor

Sonate für Klavier in g-Moll

HartW 94
JPEW III/1 No. 2

Composition: 31 Mar. 1851.

Apparently the work was never printed; the opus number "53" of the end-dating was used for a different work ("Etudes Instructives") from about the same time, where it fits into the chronological order of the works with opus numbers. Motifs from the last movement were later used in "Klaverstykker fra ældre og nyere Tid" No. 5 in E flat major (HartW 120:5).

Instrumentation: pf.pianoforte (piano)

Key: G minor
