David Yeagley

The Sonata for Piano is the first major piano solo work by David Yeagley using his new system of harmonic organization.   Yeagley has written numerous piano solo works, but this one is the first employing the harmonic system he began developing in 1994, at the University of Arizona, where he studied with Daniel Asia.  (Yeagley received his Doctorate in Musical Arts in August, 1994, and majored in piano performance and minored in composition.)

The Sonata for Piano is in four movements, and follows the classical sonata form.  It also involves both late Romantic gestures, and innovative shapes and expression.

1. Andante con licenza

2. Andante senza licenza ma non macchinala

4. Presto agitato
