Description
Volume 2. Sonata in D minor (Ped.) – Sample page Volume 18 of the series “Organ music from England and America”
After the “Eight festive organ pieces” (BU 1950), the publisher presents another worthwhile masterpiece by the English romantic and Elgar contemporary Faulkes: the “Sonata in D minor”, first published in 1898. It impresses with its excellent craftsmanship, the abundance of thematic material and its richness of color. In the three formally compact movements, the playful element is just as convincing as the delicate meditative one, thus offering players and listeners alike a lasting musical experience. The level of difficulty is medium. An ideal addition to the romantic concert repertoire!
