Sonata for Solo Cello, Op. 8 is a sonata for solo cello by Hungarian composer Zoltán Kodály, composed in 1915. The work blends late-Romantic expressiveness with Hungarian folk modes and advanced virtuosic and extended techniques for the instrument, and it expanded the technical and expressive possibilities of the solo cello while marking a key stage in Kodály's early development and in Hungarian modernist composition.
