Nothing is known about the genesis of this work. In the original edition it is without an opus number; when Wilhelm Hansen republished it in the late 1880s, however, it was provided with the opus number 48. Niels Krabbe has suggested that it was a misinterpretation of the price "48 Sk." printed on the original edition.

The opus number "48" in the list of works on the front cover is not known from any other source. The opus number "48a" is first found in Hove's biography and later adopted in Dan Fog's catalogue, probably as a construction because Symphony No. 2 bears the authorized opus number "48". As the Symphony was composed in 1848 and the Sonatina in 1863, it is unlikely that Hartmann should have given it the opus number 48a.
