The ''Violin sonata in F major'' (
HWV 370) is a work for violin and
basso continuo that was originally thought to have been composed by
George Frideric Handel. Modern scholars however believe it doubtful that the work was composed by Handel, and have labelled it as "spurious". The work is also referred to as ''Opus 1 No. 12'', and was first published in 1732 by
Walsh. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as
HG ; and
HHA .
Both the
Walsh edition and the
Chrysander edition indicate that the work is for violin, and published it as ''Sonata XII''.
