About this arrangement

Chamber Music Piano SKU: PR.110418340 Composed by Richard Wernick. Performance Score. 12 pages. Duration 6:30. Theodore Presser Company #110-41834. Published by Theodore Presser Company (PR.110418340). ISBN 9781491133798. UPC: 680160683260.Wernick’s music often exhibits subtle wit underlying a serious exterior, sometimes with warming references to past musical heritage. The title SONATINA evokes works of Clementi and Kuhlau, typically concise three-movement pieces intended for piano students as stepping stones toward more advanced repertoire. Wernick’s SONATINA was composed for his former student James Primosch, a virtuoso pianist as well as his successor as composition professor at University of Pennsylvania – using the 18th-century student sonatina reference for subtle irony in this advanced work.
