About Piano Sonata
I started working on my Piano Sonata in 2013 and completed in 2020.
1st
movement (Allegretto): This
movement is based on the chromatic and whole tone scales. The agitato sections
should be played in an even manner and if possible, Presto. Use the pedal
sparingly.
2nd
movement (Largo e espressivo): This
movement is in a romantic setting. Make sure to bring out the melody in the
slow sections (2 outer ones) and pianist should judge which voicing is the main
melody in the middle section. Take your time to play the last 2 measures of
this movement, and end off with a very silent trill.
3rd
movement (Vivo): This Rondo
is Toccata-like, and performer again should use the pedal sparingly.
Piano Sonata is dedicated to my friends Mr James Oh Ju Young and Mr Matthias Oh.
