The Oboe sonata in C minor (HWV 366) was composed (c. 1711-12) by George Frideric Handel for oboe and keyboard (harpsichord). The work is also referred to as Opus 1 No. 8, and was first published in 1732 by Walsh. Other catalogues of Handel's music have referred to the work as HG xxvii,29; and HHA iv/18,32.

A typical performance of the work takes about six and a half minutes.
