Piano Sonata, K. 545

The Piano Sonata in C major, K. 545 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is possibly
his most famous piano sonata. It was described by Mozart himself in his own
thematic catalogue as "for beginners", and it is sometimes known by the
nickname Sonata facile or Sonata semplice.

Mozart added the work to his catalogue on June 26, 1788, the same date as
his Symphony No. 39. The exact circumstances of the work's composition are
not known, however.

The work is in three movements:

  1. Allegro
  2. Andante
  3. Rondo

The first movement begins with one of the best known examples of Alberti bass:

Although the piece is very well known today, it was not published in
Mozart's lifetime, first appearing in print in 1805.
