Sonata No. 16 in C major, K.545 – II. Andante | W.A. Mozart | Harpsichord
Harpsichord transcription of the second movement (Andante) from the Sonata No. 16 in C major, K.545 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Often referred to as the “Sonata facile,” K.545 was conceived with pedagogical intent, yet its central Andante reveals a more introspective character, shaped by balance, proportion, and melodic clarity.
Presented here on the harpsichord, the movement is approached through articulation and pacing, allowing its calm and measured discourse to unfold without reliance on Romantic pianistic effects.
Bruno Martins is a harpsichordist and contemporary musician based in Paris.
