Composed in
1956 by Bohuslav Martinu,
the Sonatina for Bb
Clarinet and Piano is a
neo-classical piece. This
work, to be played as a
single movement has been
written in three
different sections:
Moderato, Andante and
Poco Allegro. The rhythms
are reminiscent of a
polka and a march and the
piece contains unexpected
syncopation. Being one of
Bohuslav Martinu's later
works, it was written in
New York, after he spent
some time in Paris.
Bohuslav Martinu
(1890-1959) was a Czech
composer and a violinist.
Even though he was
interested in different
styles, including
romanticism, jazz and
expressionism, he wrote
mainly neo-classical
pieces, including 16
symphonies, 14 ballets
and 15 operas.
