Haydn Sonata

Hi all, here is my question. What is the most passionate, beautiful, and expressive Haydn sonata. Of course, this is your opinion. I'm really leaning toward the lesser-known works of Haydn. Some words to think of: passionate, beautiful, expressive, emotional, powerful, utter sadness, sorrowful, etc. You get the point. These terms can apply to anything. For example, sorrowful and sadness don't always apply to a slow-minor movement (though it usually does). Let's see what the results are!!

I have two pieces I played for State Contest last year and went to National with.

Adagio- (not the most specific title) It starts in E major, goes to e minor, and back to E major.

Andante Grazioso- his equivalent to Schubert's Impromptu "Rosamunde"

Are you trying out for a competition with him? Why Haydn?

It would probably benefit him if you gave him specific Hoboken numbers...
