Sonatina for trombone and piano (1992)
i Trance I
ii Trance II
iii Awakening
12 minutes
I wrote the Sonatina for my friend Mark Hartman. The piece was composed during a time when my music was influenced by aspects of minimalism; the first two movements reflect that influence in their repetitiveness and slow rate of harmonic change. The third movement, while in a slow tempo, rejects that influence and grows more traditionally.
