Problematic terminology

[edit]

I suggest that we either leave out the term "sonata di chiesa" (correctly: Sonata da chiesa) from the article or write it as it is (again, sonata da chiesa) AND give a brief explanation about how Mozart's church sonatas (btw. originally referred to as "Kirchensonaten", rather than "sonate di[da] chiesa) were different from the concept of "sonata da chiesa". Otherwise this is a mess. Anapazapa (talk) 00:13, 21 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ordinal numbers

[edit]

The ordinal numbers are from Zaslaw's book. He doesn't give ordinal numbers to K. 241 and K. 263. I don't know why. The table at the IMSLP link has two other numbering schemes, so its all very confusing. You really have to use the K-numbers to be certain which sonata is being discussed.DavidRF (talk) 04:29, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Tempi

[edit]

As they're all one movement works, shall we include tempi in the list? I know it might seem pointless since they're nearly all allegros, but at least No. 1 and No. 7 are marked andantino and allegro con spirito respectively. Maybe put it in the Notes section.

Done. Didn't have any notes, so I removed the column.DavidRF (talk) 02:40, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
