This is a Sonatina consisting of three movements: Commodo Molto moderato and AllegroJohn Ireland's own Sonatina for piano was avowedly the model for Geoffrey Bush's which is neo-classical in spirit.The first movement is a concise sonata structure; the second weaves a Bach-like texture; the third is a kind of two part invention.

Bartók a composé la Sonatina pour piano solo au cours de son année roumaine en 1915, année au cours de laquelle il a également composé la collection de danses folkloriques roumaines et les chants de Noël roumains. Dans cette pièce pour piano relativement courte (de trois à quatre minutes), le compositeur a utilisé de la musique folklorique instrumentale glanée en Transylvanie. Dans le premier mouvement, Bartók fait apparaître deux cornemuses et, dans le second, un violoniste jouant pour une danse d\'ours. La première édition de la Sonatina a été publiée par Rózsavölgyi en 1919, et le compositeur a créé l\''uvre en 1920 à Pozsony (Bratislava). Cette impression indépendante est basée sur le volume 38 de l\'édition critique complète de Bartók publiée en 2019, dans laquelle Henle Verlag de Munich et Editio Musica Budapest ont publié les 'uvres pour piano composées entre 1914 et 1920. / Partitions classique / Piano - instruments à clavier / Piano / EMB (Editio Musica Budapest)

La Sonatina canonica pour deux guitares opus 196 de Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (1895-1968) fut composée en 1961 pour le légendaire duo de guitares formé par Ida Presti (1924-1967) et Alexandre Lagoya (1929-1999). Ce fut le premier épisode d'une longue collaboration qui eut pour fruits des oeuvres d'une grande valeur. Conçus en forme de canon, les trois mouvements de la Sonatina représentent un hommage voilé à la musique pour clavecin d'inspiration hispanique de Domenico Scarlatti et sont restitués ici dans le texte original, respectant scrupuleusement les nombreux signes d'articulation et indications du compositeur présents dans les manuscrits. / 2 Guitares

Later Elementary Level-Description: This contains three movements similar to those that might be found in a classical sonatina. The first movement is in ABA' form with a medium tempo. The second movement has a lyrical cantabile melody. The third movement is a fast gigue-like movement. Purpose: The student may learn the variations in sound and mood produced by movements indicative of a classical sonatina. Suggestions for Instruction: 1) Have the student try the right hand first observing correct fingering. Practice tapering 3-note slurs that end with staccato. Practice playing crescendo and decrescendo then add the left hand. 2) Allow the student to play the right-hand melody with appropriateshading and breathing. Introduce legato pedaling. Teach following the line. 3) Point out how the left hand mimics the chords in the right hand hand-over-hand. Have the student practice the 3-note slurs in the right hand for a 'loud-soft-soft' type of sound. Work to make a distinction between f and mf. Have the student pedal with the harmonic changes. Key: C Major
