Sonata in the Haydn stile

Many composers here in YC have said, like you did, that they were writing something in the style of a famous composer like Bach, Debussy, Chopin etc. Many of them have done their imitating very poorly, sounding nothing like the ones they were trying to imitate. You are a clear exception! I can really feel the Haydn!

the style/sounding is okay, somewhere I feel more baroque music, and about the ostinato, it's sometimes more Mozart, than Haydn, but it's okay. My problem: the technique you used is not the technique what Haydn used. Read about it, and you can learn more :)

good luck in the future!

This sonata takes as a reference model: a sonata in G major by Haydn, especially in the form:

I really enjoyed listening to your sonata! Its difficult to mimic a famous composer's work because it will always be compared with it but I think you've done a great job at capturing the style and feel of the early classical period.
