SKU: A0.882108
Composed by Muzio Clementi. Arranged by Samuel Wellman. 20th Century. Score. 5 pages. Samuel Wellman #3010545. Published by Samuel Wellman (A0.882108).This work, written in 1994, was one of my first parodies. Taking another composer's piece and 'messing it up', so to speak, became an important preoccupation for me. Clementi (Op. 36 No. 1) obviously is the victim here, and you can easily follow the original throughout. In the first movement I added a dissonant left hand part, and the result is basically bitonal, with a few quotes added from other famous tunes. In the second movement the material is moved up two octaves to imitate a music box and, just as would happen to a real wind-up music box, the tempo gets slower and slower until......oh no! The final dominant seventh doesn't resolve! Anarchy! Finally, the last movement stays completely faithful to the original, except that every measure is transposed to a different key. It's a great ear-bender, and as Mozart says in the movie Amadeus, "It's so new!" And the title, 'Snotty Tina,' is a corruption of 'Sonatina.'
