Piano Sonata No. 1 ('Bells') Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

This First Piano Sonata is in three movements. The work is subtitled 'Bells', as each movement explores a different aspect of ringing bell-tones, whilst avoiding any direct reference to, for example, the change-ringing of church bells, or otherwise. The first movement (Chimes) suggests aspects of sonata form, with a ricochet-rhythm first theme based on fifths, and a lyrical second subject. In the ternary form second movement (Requiescat), funereal bells toll and peal in cycles of textural thickening and thinning. The final movement is a relentless perpetual movement of parallel chords and hemiolas, passing through a giant circle of fifths, in the vague manner of a carillon.Duration: 24 minutes.Registered with PRS (Performing Rights Society, UK).Composer's website: www.roberthowardmusic.co.uk
