HWV Instrument Key Composed Published Opus Notes
357 Oboe B-flat major 1710-00-00circa 1707–10 0000-00-00 One of Handel's earliest extant compositions. Probably written during his years in Italy
358 Unspecified G major 1710-00-00circa 1707–10 0000-00-00 A "Fitzwilliam" sonata. The autographed manuscript, located in the Fitzwilliam Museum, does not mention instrumentation, nor are there tempo markings for the movements. It is tentatively assigned to the violin in the HHA, however the recorder is also a possibility.
359a Violin D minor 1724-00-00circa 1724 0000-00-00 The D minor sonata, headed "Sonata 2", follows the G major sonata (HWV 358) in the Fitzwilliam Museum autograph. Originally written for violin and published in two different E minor versions for the flute. See flute sonata in E minor (HWV 359b)
359b Flute E minor 1724-00-00circa 1724 1732-00-001732 01bOpus 1 No. 1b Of the two sonatas published by Chrysander as Opus 1 Sonata I, this one (Sonata Ib) is the one in Walsh's original edition (where it is called Sonata I).

364a Violin G minor 172200-00circa 1722–24 1732-00-001732 06Opus 1 No. 6 Both Walsh and Chrysander published the work as an oboe sonata.
364b Viola da gamba G minor 1724-00-00circa 1724 0000-00-00 A transcription of HWV 364a—as suggested by Handel on the manuscript.
365 Recorder C major 1726-00-00circa 1712 0000-00-00 07Opus 1 No. 7
366 Oboe C minor 1712-00-00circa 1711–12 1732-00-001732 08Opus 1 No. 8
367a Recorder D minor 1726-00-00circa 1712 0000-00-00 09aOpus 1 No. 9a Movements 1–5 constitute the "Fitzwilliam Sonata III" in Thurston Dart's arrangement. Originally published Flute Sonata in B minor, Op 1 No 9b (HWV 367b). The contemporary edition of Handel attributes it to the transverse flute, but the autograph manuscript is clearly for the recorder.
367b Flute B minor 1726-00-00circa 1725–26 1732-00-001732 09bOpus 1 No. 9b In the 'Aylesford' collection the Alla breve appears with the title of FUGE

372 Violin A major 0000-00-00 1732-00-001732 14Opus 1 No. 14 Probably spurious. The piece was published by Walsh as Op 1 No. 10 in the original edition that had a faked title page naming Roger as the publisher; the designation Op 1 No.14 is Chrysander's
373 Violin E major 0000-00-00 1732-00-001732 15Opus 1 No. 15 Probably spurious. The piece was published by Walsh as Op 1 No. 12 in the original edition that had a faked title page naming Roger as the publisher; the designation Op 1 No.15 is Chrysander's

375 Flute E minor 0000-00-00 1730-00-001730 "Halle sonata No. 2". Authenticity uncertain. The first two movements are identical to those of HWV 366, and the last also appears (out of context) at the end of Walsh's printing of HWV 434

378 Flute D major 1707-00-00circa 1707? 1979-00-001979 No autograph, but now considered authentic. It appears in an important manuscript of 18th century solo sonatas in the Brussels Royal Conservatory, and is there attributed to 'Sr Weisse'
379 Flute E minor 1728-00-00circa 1727–28 1879-00-001879 01aOpus 1 No. 1a The work's authenticity is unquestioned, but the sonata is not part of Handel's Opus 1 as published by Walsh—having been added by Chrysander.
406 Violin A major 1751-00-00circa 1751 0000-00-00 Adagio and Allegro. Three–part accompaniment (? orchestral short score)
407 Violin G major 1738-00-00circa 1738 0000-00-00 Allegro
408 Violin C minor 1729-00-00circa 1725–29 0000-00-00 Allegro. It may be the only surviving fragment of a completed sonata in C minor. Used as the finale to the Recorder sonata in A minor (HWV 362).
409 Recorder D minor 1726-00-00circa 1712 0000-00-00 Andante. Variant of movement from the Recorder Sonata in D minor (HWV 367a)
412 Violin A minor 1726-00-00circa 1725–26 0000-00-00 Andante
419-1 1720-00-00circa 1710–20 0000-00-00 HWV 419 1-6 are six marches. They are known only from printed sources; were published as separate treble and bass parts; with instrumentation unspecified, though title pages mention flute and violin for treble parts. May have originated as a keyboard work.
