Daniel O. Piano sonata op.1
on: May 31, 2009, 02:46:26 PM
This is a piece i had composed 2 months ago. It is an 8 minute long one movement piano sonata.
please note that during the recapitulation it takes it to fast for some reason. I will probably revise the coda since I it currently sucks  :P

I am amazed at your ability to compose this and play articulately.  There are some interesting finger works going on with a lot of repetition of notes and jumps to the unexpected areas! 
You play every well, too.  Continue to compose more pieces.   :)

best wishes,

I think the structure could have used a little more elaborating (the A theme was connected to the modulating bridge with a set of repeated notes) but besides that it is pretty good.
