 Musical Forms - Sonata
The single-movement sonata survived later in the era in such byways as G.C. Arresti's anthology of 18 Sonate de organo (circa 1700) and the keyboard sonatas (or 'toccatas') of Seixas, but by the time of Corelli (1653-1713) the sonata usually consisted of a number of separate movements.
As the clavichord and harpsichord were superseded by the piano, the keyboard sonata continued to rank high in the works of Haydn, Clementi, Mozart and Beethoven.
Among sonatas in the smaller second category are those based on a programme, like Liszt's Après une lecture de Dante, fantasia quasi sonata, or those which experiment with structure, such as the same composer's single-movement Piano Sonata in b Minor.
