SKU: A0.941029
Composed by Joshua Allen. Contemporary. Score. 5 pages. Joshua Allen Music #3491375. Published by Joshua Allen Music (A0.941029).Weekend Sonatina for solo piano features two movements: I. Saturday and II. Sunday.
I. Saturday is light and frolicking, the beginning of the weekend where exciting possibilities await. Contrasts in staccato and legato contrast the two primary themes of this small sonata form movement. A brief Beethoven-esque development leads to a recapitulation and a light-hearted conclusion.
II. Sunday features a leisurely descending chromatic theme in the left hand against a simple, pensive melody in the right. After an accompanimental variation of the theme and a brief inversion of the chromatic line against a secondary theme, the piece draws to a close and the listener can hear the sun setting as the weekend slowly ends.
From start to finish, Weekend Sonatina is close to 4 minutes in length. Each movement can stand alone or be performed together. The chromaticism in the left hand, stylistic variations, and ranges covered in each hand make this piece suitable for the advancing intermediate to advanced student.
