It's sonata in D major Hob.XVI:37

In my book it is Sonata in D (No.7) by Joseph Haydn. There are others on utube that are 37 and they're not the same at all.

This sonata is Urtext No.50, Hoboken XVI:37, Op.30 No.3. I learned it from Jeno Jando's cycle on Naxos, where it is the third sonata on Volume 5 (8.553128)

Maybe...but what about the different systems of tuning...and pitch creeping up to A440 over the centuries?
Not that I disagree about the colors of keys, but those colors may have been very different when the composer wrote the music!

Someone may have said this already, but this is Haydn's Piano Sonata No. 37 and it is indeed in D. The first mvt. is allegro con brio, the second is a beautiful largo, and the finale is presto, ma non troppo (fast, but not too fast). This sonata is awesome!!!
