We compute Hochschild homology and cohomology of a class of generalized Weyl algebras, introduced by V. V. Bavula in St. Petersbourg Math. Journal, 4 (1) (1999), 71-90. Examples of such algebras are the n-th Weyl algebras, 𝒰 ( 𝔰 𝔩 2 ) , primitive quotients of 𝒰 ( 𝔰 𝔩 2 ) , and subalgebras of invariants of these algebras under finite cyclic groups of automorphisms. We answer a question of Bavula–Jordan (Trans. A.M.S., 353 (2) (2001), 769-794) concerning the generators of the group of automorphisms of a generalized Weyl algebra. We also explain previous results on the invariants of Weyl algebras and of primitive quotients
