Chapter 13: Other Classical Genres The Sonata

Key Terms Sonata Piano sonata Violin sonata Sonata movement plan

Other Classical Genres In addition to symphony, four other principal genres Sonata Concerto String quartet Opera buffa These genres borrow many features of the symphony Especially sonata, concerto, & quartet

The Sonata Sonata genre NOT the same as sonata form! Baroque sonata was a chamber genre The Classical sonata = a work in several movements for one or two instruments For solo instrument with or without piano Intended mostly for private performance More “domestic” than the “public” symphony

Sonata Types Piano sonata (for piano alone) Featured favorite new instrument of the time Violin sonata (for violin & piano) Sonatas use an adapted version of the symphony movement plan Less uniform than symphonies, concertos, or quartets Only 2/3 of sonatas follow sonata movement plan

Symphony Movement Plan I – Moderate to fast tempo; Sonata form Sometimes with slow Introduction II – Slow tempo; Various forms used Sonata form, variations, rondo, or other III – Moderate tempo; Minuet form A triple meter dance IV – Fast tempo; Sonata or rondo form

Sonata Movement Plan Similar to symphony movement plan Minuet movement usually omitted Movements often shorter than in symphony I – Moderate to fast tempo; Sonata form Slow Introduction rare II – Slow tempo; Various forms used Sonata form, variations, rondo, or other III –Fast tempo; Sonata or rondo form

Mozart, Piano Sonata in B-flat A sonata in three movements Follows the sonata movement plan 1st movement – Allegro, sonata form 2nd movement – Adagio, rondo form 3rd movement – Allegretto, rondo-like form A sunny work overall More typical than the often painful agitation of Symphony No. 40

Mozart, Sonata in B-flat, III (1) Feel of rondo form, but irregular A theme’s structure is typical for rondo theme Contrasting sections (B & C) are typical rondo episodes But there is no central A (between B & C) All 3 themes are rounded binary form tunes

Mozart, Sonata in B-flat, III (2) The A theme is edgy, with syncopations B theme simpler with more syncopation C uses spiky counterpoint, chromaticism
