In her Impromptu, Helena Winkelman conjures an atmosphere of timelessness, employing musical elements variously meditative and percussive, punctuated by shadowy accents in the contrabass register and delicate flourishes in the soprano. This masterful composition, engrossing and adventurous, is a rewarding challenge for the performer. Performing notes Attentive pedaling is key to producing the spectral resonances in this Impromptu. The impressionistic atmosphere of the piece requires a carefully gauged use of all three pedals, even where not expressly noted in the score. Especially with the right pedal many small ad lib. changes are necessary to create this impressionistic atmosphere. The central pedal only holds the bass notes. Care must be taken that the pedals are not changed at the same time to avoid the third pedal affecting notes that should not be. The composer wrote Impromptu with Schubert’s Hungarian Melody (D817) playing in her mind’s ear, and suggests that her Impromptu be programmed to follow it attacca in performance.

A sonata in classic construct, with A-B-A movements, Baksa's Second Piano Sonata comes years after his first. His compositional explorations have taken him through woodwind, brass, and string solos and ensembles, and a series of works for the harpsichord (an instrument which obviously holds his curiosity), and he now returns to the piano with a new major work. The third movement is especially challenging, at times skipping, at times flowing across the keyboard, but a satisfying flight for fingers. For advanced pianists.

Joy is taken from the three-song set by Thomas Juneau, The Song Maker. This exhuberant work captures the euphoria one feels at the joy of being loved. A rhythmic, yet unhurried, piano accompaniment enhances beautiful and soaring vocal lines. Will work well for young treble choirs, but is sophisticated enough to work for all levels.
