An ABRSM
syllabus title - Grade
7.Pál Járdányi
(1920-1966) was one of
Zoltán Kodály's most
faithful pupils and
followers. At the end of
his short career in 1965,
he wrote his Sonata for
Cello and Piano. The two
movement format follows
the format of a rhapsody.
The Larghetto is
dominated by pentatonic
melodies characteristic
of Hungarian folksongs.
In contrast, the Allegro
assai takes the tone of a
bagpipe song, offering
rhythmic and virtuosic
parts for each
instrument.
