Bedtime Stories for the Inner Child

This work was written as a private project funded by Patreon. I wrote this sonata during my recovery period when I broke my hip on September 11, 2023, and is my third sonata completed for the piano.

The first movement, the most massive character…and his scars is a theme with variations ending in a gigue-style fugue. The fugue is in binary form where the 2nd half is the main theme upside down.

The second movement and the moonlight glistened as he sailed through the river of honey is an emotional ballad in 10/8, exploring the sama’i form in a sentimental affect.

The final movement, on the battlefield of souls, is a sonata form that’s blazing fast and is meant to be a battle the performer must overcome.

The work has never been premiered, please reach out if you’d like to change that.
