Sonatina I by Kuhlau

 Sonatina I Op. 20 No. 1 by Friedrich Kuhlau! This sonatina has been so fun to learn. I love the middle section that sounds very stormy and reminds me of Beethoven. But then it returns to the main, happy, theme! I plan on playing this piece for my piano jury once the tempo is polished up!
