Piano Sonata in g-minor
A three movement tour de force for the advanced pianist. The opening Allegro arrests the listener’s attention right from the first note. The middle movement, Psalm, is a spiritual meditation that ranges from tender to reverent to embittered. The third movement is a colossal survey of rich writing that demands levels of control and technical mastery to render the orchestral tapestry that opens into a bright and triumphant conclusion at the end of the work.
