Piano Sonata ‘Facile Sonata’ C KV 545

The sonatas in C Major (KV 545) and A Major (KV 331) are among the most popular of all Mozart’s piano sonatas. KV 545 is a firm favourite with piano teachers and their pupils (for many pianists this represents their first introduction to the sonata repertoire) and KV 331 with its famous variation movement and the renowned Rondo alla turca is one of the most popular works of the whole Viennese classical period. Both sonatas are now also available individually as part of the new Wiener Urtext edition of all Mozart’s piano sonatas. These editions are based upon the latest research into original documents and are notable for music that is clear and well laid out, with pageturns in convenient places, making the music more readily accessible to beginners and amateur pianists too.
