Product Description

Kaplan has fond memories of studying composition with John Davison at Haverford College, where music majors received a copy of Davison's book, Piano Music I. It has been a beloved companion through the years, always in a prominent place on the piano.

The three-movement Sonatina is by turns expressive, dynamic, and playful, and works well in a woodwind-quintet arrangement (even though here and there some notes are omittedafter all, a pianist has more than five fingers!or raised or lowered by an octave). Note that the usual wind-quintet oboe part is here replaced by an English Horn, which is a better match to the registers chosen by the composer. Note also the optional use of the piccolo towards end of the piece; this passage can also be played effectively on the flute (with the highest phrase taken down an octave).

This is part of Kaplan's project to broaden the repertoire of music available to woodwind-quintet players by arranging both great classics and little-known gems. Several more of these arrangements have been (or will soon be) posted to YouTube and are available for purchase through SheetMusicPlus or SheetMusicDirect.
