TEACHING NOTES
Despite the "Presto" tempo marking, this piece should not be allowed to become mechanical and soulless. There is plenty of light and shade to be found, more than that written by Haydn or suggested in the ABRSM edition.  For example a slight ritardando towards each pause is an effective touch.

Dynamics are generally editorial and this recodrding offers some variations on what is printed, for example the echo effect in bar 23, the slightly softer approach to bars 53-63 (providing a needed contrast to the outer sections, a crescendo from bars 72-78.

Attention should be paid to the over-lapping notes from bars 38.. and 97... 

In general try to play this movement with energy and some "capriciousness" but never sounding over hurried.
