Cello sonata

A cello sonata is piece written sonata form, often with the instrumentation of a cello taking solo role with piano accompaniment.

[1] Some of the earliest cello sonatas were composed in the 18th century by Francesco Geminiani and Antonio Vivaldi, and since then other famous cello sonatas have grown to those by Johannes Brahms, Ludwig van Beethoven, Felix Mendelssohn, Fryderyk Chopin, and Richard Strauss among others.

The following list contains cello sonatas with or without accompanying instruments.

The following list (inevitably incomplete) tries to place the major sonatas and equivalent works for cello and piano or cello solo in chronological order of completion.

It will be susceptible to uncertainty of dates, and whether original or revised versions are definitive.
