Par ARNOLD MALCOLM. .. .une brief ouverture allegro, un mouvement lent qui a évolué de simplicité lyrique à serait-il gestes émotionnels et une finale qui est un euberant et un salut affectueux à pré-Goodman Rag. Christopher Grier, Evening Standard, 12 octobre 1976/ Répertoire / Clarinette et Piano

Arnold Cooke's Sonata in B flat for Clarinet and Piano was written for the Hampton Music Club in 1959. Duration of the work is 20 minutes.

Arnold's Sonatina was written in January 1951 and was first performed at the Gallery of the Royal Society of British Artists in London by Colin Davis. The piece is in three highly varied movements with a brisk opening softer and slower second movement and a Furioso third. A challenging virtuoso piece!
