Allegro moderato; Andante cantabile; Rondo (Allegro)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Austrian composer and music publisher Anton Diabelli (1781-1858) is remembered for two things. First, there was the waltz he sent around to various composers of the day in 1819, requesting them to write variations for an anthology. The challenge was, of course, best met by Beethoven, who wrote a whole set. Second, there are the eleven sonatinas (Opp. 151 and 168), which are still studied by many students to this day. I had never systematically studied them, although I probably learned one or two movements as a boy. However, I was given a copy of the Op. 168 set recently, and got much pleasure from playing through them - admiring the way Diabelli distilled the essence of a late classical sonata into miniature forms. The first movement of this sonata vaguely echoes Weber in its horn-like opening. The linked second and third movements use the same theme. I have to say that the rapid repeated chords in the accompaniment figures towards the end of the rondo really require a piano with a looser action than mine!
