The version for piano solo published here was edited for publication by the great piano pedagogue Carl Czerny.Queen's Temple Publications is very pleased to make this absolute gem available for audiences to delight in once again.

Malcolm Arnold composer of one of the greatest British symphonic cycles as well as music for countless iconic films (including Bridge on the River Kwai Whistle Down the Wind and St Trinian's) was as direct in his words as he was in his music. This collection of his writings and interviews presents a fascinating insight into his complex mind.Foreword by Katherine Arnold.

1942-Arnold lovers may be a little surprised at what they find in this sonata - a foray into fairly strict serial writing - but humour and good tunes are still to be found!

A bold first movement leads into an expressive and melodious central movement. The work ends with some typically extrovert organ writing. Duration: 10 mins.

Another witty and engaging work from the pen of the inimitable James Rae. Two delightful movements evoking the era of the cinema organ. For flute oboe clarinet horn and bassoon.
