Description:
I. Allegro
II. Recitative and Aria
III. Rondo
This work was commissioned by Mark Papworth in 2021. The general brief was to compose a sonata for natural horn and cello in my usual neo-classical style. Mark and Amanda also had some specific requirements for the piece: 1.) the cello part should play a melody at least once in every movement; and 2.) the second movement should be in the form of a recitative and aria and in a minor key.
It was a pleasure working with Mark and Amanda to compose this very rare kind of sonata. As far as I know, there are only three composers (including myself) who have composed sonatas for natural horn and cello, with Frederic Nicolas Duvernoy (1765-1828) and Aldolphe Blanc (1828-1885) composing sonatas between the late 18 century and mid-19 century, respectively. Their works are rare treasures, and I am very pleased to contribute more music to this niche repertoire.
