Sonata for Oboe and Piano was composed in 2003. One of my first compositions, the work has three very different moods. I labeled the first movement Menacing, but the notes end there. The second movement is very slow and tranquil. The third movement is an ‘long-legged’ dance. There a (pivoting minor sixth) motive that exists in all three movements.
