Reinagle is among the most respected early American musicians. He composed these works, the first piano sonatas to be written in this country, shortly after his arrival in Philadelphia in 1786. They reveal Reinagle as a skillful emulator of the empfindsamer Stil of his colleague C. P. E. Bach. Most of the music in this edition has never before been published.
