Description

This conservatively pitch-centric composition dates from 1969. The first movement is an energetic sonata form with highly contrasting themes. The slow movement is reminiscent of a minuet, and the finale is a cheerful rondo. Overall, the work is challenging and rhythmically active, with a facile technique up to C5 required.
