In 1795, Haydn, at a young 63, was completing the second and last of two triumphant trips to London (the first was four years earlier). During this last visit to the English capital, he became acquainted with Therese Jansen, a brilliant pianist for whom he wrote three sonatas – the final three of his prodigious output in the form. The sonatas were composed not just for an English performer, but for one of the large English pianos of the day. These instruments, with their extended keyboards which gave the piano ‘extra’ notes, proved so much to Haydn’s liking that he took one back to Vienna with him.

InHaydn’s time piano sonatas abounded: in the very year of the present sonata, Beethoven composed his first three piano Sonatas (Op. 2), which he dedicated to Haydn; Mozart had written his 18th and last sonata in 1789; Johann Christian Bach (1735-1782) produced 35 sonatas; for Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788), estimates range from 150 to 200 sonatas; and Muzio Clementi (1752-1832), wrote 35 of an eventual output which amounted to nearly double that number.
