One of six pieces written in Munich in 1775 for Baron Dürnitz. It is a work that frequently employs ornaments and small notes, giving an improvisatory impression.

The scale-like passages in the first movement, along with the Alberti bass and repeated chords in the accompaniment, create a light and lively musical texture. The second movement is marked 'Amoroso'. It possesses the character of chamber music, reminiscent of string instruments, and concludes as a very gentle intermezzo. The third movement is in rondo form, with the theme and as many as four episodes vividly interwoven.

※For the tonalities of Sonatas No. 1 to No. 6, please refer to the commentary for Sonata No. 1.
