This is a list of solo piano pieces by Joseph Haydn.
Piano sonatas
editTwo numbering schemes for the sonatas are commonly used. Here, the pieces are sorted using the numbering method proposed by H. C. Robbins Landon,[1] while the "Hob. XVI" specification refers to its index in the Hoboken catalogue.
