I'm working on a Haydn sonatina for alto sax and piano, and there's a DC al Coda at the end, with an outgoing key change that reflects the key at the start of the piece.

I had to smile at this, since the saxophone was not invented until about 25 years or so after Haydn's death and was based on the keyed bugle and keyed trumpet, which Haydn DID write for. What did he actually write the sonatina for?
