    My second piano sonata

    Hi, I finished my second piano sonata completely. I named it "The Golden Anniversary" and dedicated it to my parents who will have their 50th Wedding Anniversary this coming May.

    This sonata has four movements:

    1. Moderato, molto espressivo

    2. Adagio

    3. Scherzo

    4. Rondo - Allegro

    You can listen to the music on my website and have a look at the score as well:

    best wishes,
    André

    I haven't listened to it yet but the idea of writing for your parents is just sweet.

    This is a grand musical composition by a talented musician and composer.

    I know of André's works from another music forum that I also moderate, and I've listened and re-listened to all his compositions.

    Thank you André for sharing these with this community as well .

    I really, really like your piano sonata. It's is very beautiful indeed. Reminds me of many composers, but seems to have its own voice, too. I look forward to hearing more of your music.

    Yer-ter-bory as you Swedes enchantingly pronounce it. I'd love to visit, sadly I've only been to Malmoe, which I didn't like too much ... mind you ... I come from Copenhagen which (like Stockholm) is simply stunning.
