Published in 1734, Leclair's opus 5 sonatas were dedicated to Louis XV. This is the first modern edition of this set of sonatas, interesting for their use of bimodality and their level of technical difficulty.
Opus 5
Sonata I in A Major
Sonata II in F Major
Sonata III in E Minor
Sonata IV in B-flat Major
Sonata V in B Minor
