In the
second half of his life,
Moeran greatly extended
his sensibilities and his
musical palate to include
more energetic and
vigorous rhythms,
harmonic colours and
tonalities. In the Sonata
for ViolonCello and
Piano, the listener will
find grandeur in the
first movement and an
intricate rondo in the
finale. It is a piece by
a composer who has taken
an expansive step beyond
his immediate
surroundings and first
influences.E J Moeran was
a 20th century British
composer of Anglo-Irish
background who spent his
early years in Norfolk
and influences of
folksong and programmatic
elements can be easily
heard in this composer's
main body of work. Moeran
tended toward thesmaller
ensembles in his
compositions, which gave
an appropriate frame for
his lyric gifts.
