Inspired by Louis Simpson's wondrous and dreamlike poem, The Troika, this remarkable, new piano sonata by composer Damon Ferrante (2014 Simkins Award Winner) is a thrilling addition to the repertory!
This fiery and lyrical piano sonata blends the Classical and Romantic styles of Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, and Schumann with modern, highly colorful melodies, polyphony, and rhythms--from gestures evocative of falling snow to a wild, midnight ride through a winter landscape.
Performed hundreds of times throughout the United States and Europe, Snow Moon: Piano Sonata, serves as an excellent companion piece on concert programs featuring standard-repertoire works.
Tim Smith of the Baltimore Sun calls Ferrante's music "focused and colorful...with an unexpected, decidedly poetic touch."
