Summary/Abstract: Soler’s multipartite sonatas in volume IV are substantially different in pattern from the ones in volume VI. These differences, as analysed in the Sonata in C Major, lie in the discourse development, modulation dynamics, and rhythm. The rondo also has an important role. In the second part, Allegretto, this sonata introduces us to a special, very sensitive formal pattern of the sonata genre which, with his genuine formal sense, Padre Antonio Soler aims to bring to perfection.
