The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence.

Sonata-Fantasie Early Version
on: May 14, 2015, 01:38:45 AM
Hello all! I don't normal start threads on here because I work better as an observer and commentator but I've been working on this piece for a long while now and would like some feedback. It's come a long way from where it started. I didn't know what to do with it. I proposed is as a finale of a sonata or concerto but it didn't fit the form. Perhaps a Ballade of sorts? Maybe invent my own genre. Well obviously I titled it Sonata Fantasie and it fits. There are aspects of the piece which occur on more than one occasion but there is no real clear structure. I haven't worked out all the kinks and I want to work much more on the A-flat Minor section but here it is so far. Enjoy if you can.
