Book Description
Liszt's B minor Sonata is now regarded as his finest work for piano, and one of the pinnacles of Romantic piano music. This handbook opens with a survey of Liszt's early attempts at sonata composition - which include some well-known pieces that, hitherto, have been unrecognised as sonata forms - and clears away some of the persistent myths regarding programme music in Liszt's output. In the central chapters, built around an analysis of the B minor Sonata, Kenneth Hamilton discusses various interpretative approaches, arguing that the contradictory writings on the subject stem from the deliberate formal ambiguity of the piece itself - one reason for its perennial fascination, perhaps. The book concludes with a chapter on the performance practice and the performing history of the work, which should be of particular interest to pianists.

Book Description
Mozart composed only two sonatas in minor keys and it has been suggested that the dark quality of this A minor sonata was influenced by events surrounding the death of Mozart's mother. The three movements are Allegro Maestoso, Andante cantabile con espressione, and Presto. Dr. Hinson includes performance footnotes and pedaling suggestions.
