See media help. Sonata (/sÉËnÉËtÉ/; Italian: [soËnaËta], pl. sonate; from Latin and Italian: sonare, to sound), in music, literally means a piece played as opposed to a cantata (Latin and Italian cantare, to sing), a piece sung.
The sonata, which is in three movements, as most sonatas of the classical period, is best known for the first movement, Adagio sostenuto (there are about 10 times as many recordings of it than there are of the whole piece). And thus, borrowing the idea of this baroque rhetoric figure, Beethoven starts his Sonata.
