Description
The Sonata is in three movements. A lively first movement is marked ‘Veloce’. The music juxtaposes rapid scale figures with an angular theme built on the interval of a fifth. The Piano features chord clusters and widely separated tones of imitative melodic writing. The central movement, ‘Adagio con rubato’ has a dark, pastoral mood. This opens with a solo cadenza for the Cor Anglais. The overriding spirit of the piece returns in the ‘Vivo’ finale. This is a characterful rondo with lively rhythms. There is much thematic interplay between the instruments that bookend a lyrical vocalise. The duration of the complete work is around ten minutes.
