Antonio Soler was one of the most prominent musicians of 18th-century Spain, composing many sonatas for keyboard instruments. This sonata consists of a single movement and has a light character, similar to the sonatas of D. Scarlatti. It is in F-sharp major, 3/4 time, and in ternary form. A frequent use of modulation is also a characteristic feature; in the first half alone, it modulates from the tonic to C-sharp minor, A major, and C-sharp major.
