Piano Sonata No.1

 

A virtuoso piece in three movements. The composer’s notes read as follows. “I commenced writing this Piano Sonata in the midst of a pleasant summer, completing it as winter set in. This is reflected in the joyous opening, as the seasons change so does the mood of the work, with its mournful chords, depicting the onslaught of winter, the driving rain and bitter snow. The inspiration for the sonata was fuelled by the view from my study window, looking across the hills to Huddersfield and beyond, watching as the seasons changed. The piece is a three movement structure in which all the sections are linked together. Although the work is in three sections the compositions is heard as one continuance movement”. £5.99 listen sample click here

 
Piano Sonata No.2

His second sonata was composed two years after the first. In contrast it starts with a slow brooding opening before leading into a complex fugue. The writing is much lighter within this composition, more contrapuntal.£5.99 listen sample click here
