As implied
by the title Sonatina
facile, this piano piece
is an homage to Mozart's
famous Sonata in C major
K. 545. Not only are the
movement headings Allegro
- Andante - Rondo
identical, but Jörg
Widmann also explores
Mozart's stylistic
qualities, while playing
with the ideals of
Neoclassicism. In the
outer movements, the
themes from K. 545 appear
repeatedly alongside
typical figures from the
Mozart's time such as the
famous Alberti bass in
the accompaniment. From
time to time, the piece
distances itself far from
the concept of
simplicity: the
complexity of the piano
texture and wild
expressive, tempo and
dynamic changes
sporadically lead the
“facile†ad
absurbum.
