Program note:
In the late spring of 2024 I read a review in BBC Music Magazine of an ECM recording from 1994 of Keith Jarrett playing the CPE Bach Württemberg Sonatas. I am a long time fan of CPE Bach's music. But I have confess that the Württemberg Sonatas never did much for me. Maybe it's because all the previous albums of the work were recorded on the harpsichord, which I hate. But, when I heard Keith Jarrett do these sonatas on a Steinway grand, I was blown away!!!
So blown away was I that I immediately wanted to do my own version of these great works by CPE.
I am calling my work, after John Cage, Sonatas and Interludes. There will be altogether eleven movements.
I. Sonata No. 1 - Moderato, Andante
II. Sonata No. 1 - Adagio
III. Sonata No. 1 - Presto TRIO
iV. Interlude 1 - Andante moderato
V. Sonata No. 2 - Adagio, più tranquillo TRIO
VI. Sonata No. 2 - Molto allegro
VII. Sonata No. 2 - Largo
VIII. Interlude 2 - Allegro
IX. Sonata No. 3 - Moderato
X. Sonata No. 3 - Presto TRIO
XI. Sonata No. 3 - Largo.
