Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Piano Sonata No. 4 in E-flat major, K. 282 / 189g, (1774) is a sonata in three movements:

  1. Adagio
  2. Menuetto I-II (Menuetto I is in B major, but Menuetto II is in E major, then returns to Menuetto I)
  3. Allegro

A typical performance takes about 12 minutes.

Mozart wrote the work down during a visit paid to Munich for the production of La finta giardiniera from late 1774 to the beginning of the following March.
