This is the second of the three sonatas, Hob. 50-52, known as the "English Sonatas" because they were composed during his visit to England in 1794-1795. It consists of two movements.
The first movement, in D major, is in Andante, 2/2 time (though some editions use 4/4 time). The opening theme is based on a simple melodic figure ascending from the tonic to the mediant. This sonata movement does not repeat the exposition and then seamlessly continues into the development section (from bar 44). Furthermore, in the recapitulation (bar 80), the first theme is modified.
The second movement, the Finale, is in Presto, 3/4 time, and is also in D major, like the first movement. It is written in rondo form, and its rondo theme begins with both hands in unison. The anacrusis creates a sense of forward momentum throughout the movement. Furthermore, the subsidiary themes are treated with polyphonic techniques, such as parallel and contrary motion in both hands, creating a contrast with the rondo theme.
