The Sonata No. 2 in G-major is part of the oeuvre that was assigned the Opus No. 1, and represents the first work of the composer that appeared in print. In the variation part of the two-movement sonata Woelfl once more stands out as a master of distinct form, proving his ability to musically shape appealing thoughts into a transparent texture. Having originated before 1795, the work is an example of the composers early phase. Woelfl was a virtuoso pianist, who reportedly moved audiences all across Europe to great enthusiasm by virtue of his extraordinary skill to extemporize, improvising on any given theme.
