Sonate in A-Dur. Sonata in A

Sonata in A major for unaccompanied violin, by Niccolo Paganini. It is one of the few large-scale works for unaccompanied violin from the early romantic era and displays Paganini's signature virtuosity and flair. The sonata consists of three movements: an extended opening movement in classical sonata-allegro form, a songlike Adagio non tanto, and a concluding set of variations - Polonaise variée. This first Urtext edition has been prepared by Michael Jeldon and includes editorial notes and commentary on the piece.
