Piano Sonata

Peter Thompson

£15.95

a fine strong piece, beautifully written for the piano…
Philip Mead (Pianist), Founder, British Contemporary Piano Competition

The Piano Sonata is a new work by Peter Thompson, completed in April 2022. It is in three movements, of which the first is the most extensive. Virtuosic at times and spilling over onto three and four staves, the sonata conducts an ‘argument’ through its thematically linked movements and ends in brilliant light.
