Description

Three Sonatinas for Piano Solo is for the emerging Late Elementary piano student. Each sonatina contains three movements. The first movements are in sonata-allegro form. The second movements encourage lyrical, expressive playing. The third movements are spirited showstoppers and fun to play.

Although these 21st century sonatinas have a modern sound, they are based on a form of composition that has existed for centuries. I encourage you to let the titles be your guide for interpreting each work. Play each movement with conviction and expression, and above all, have fun making these your own!
