"Solfeggietto" is a short solo keyboard piece in C minor composed in 1766 by Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach.
According to Powers the work is correctly called Solfeggio, although the Solfeggietto title is widely used today.
Owens refers to the work as a toccata.
The work is unusual for a keyboard piece in that the main theme and some other passages are fully monophonic, i.e. only one note is played at a time. The piece is commonly assigned to piano students and appears in many anthologies; pedagogically it fosters the playing of an even sixteenth note rhythm by alternating hands.
This piece is easily Bach's best-known, to the point that Paul Corneilson's introduction to The Essential C.P.E. Bach is subtitled "Beyond the Solfeggio in C Minor".
