Piano Sonata No. 1: "volant"

Piano Sonata No. 1: "volant"

Piano

Composer's Note:

Piano Sonata No. 1, subtitled "volant" (to fly), was written for pianist Richard Bosworth. Each movement is inspired by jazz idioms from "blues," "song," and "swing." The harmonic language freely shifts between jazz influenced extended triadic sounds and more dissonant secondal sonorities. This work is a study in contrasts and extremes - from the beauty of the second movement to the "boogie woogie" of the last movement.
