August 27, 2025Aug 27 Hello again my friends. Here is my piano sonata dedicated to my favourite composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. I tried my best to imitate and capture the style . I hope you appreciate it
August 30, 2025Aug 30 Quality dramatic writing. I like the sudden fast thirds in the third movement, really captivating. Some of the more technical passages especially the first movement sound more like Hummel or Clementi at times. Maybe I'm just cynical but you have quite a few passages that are directly modeled from parts of Mozart's sonatas. They are not out of place but it's quite obvious, I'd imagine, to anyone familiar with his sonatas. I like the places where your originality shines the most, I'd point out the harmony progressions and transitions I like.

I truly appreciate your attention and your appreciation. This sonata is really like a personal thank-you letter to my beloved composer, Mozart. You will certainly find many elements from his sonatas, as you said, and I tried to stay as true to his style as possible. I have a special fondness for the Andante — I believe it’s the most inspired of all the movements, with passages that even I can hardly believe I managed to write, and it feels like the part that carries something of myself.
September 8, 2025Sep 8 This piece was wonderfully written — for a moment, I thought Mozart composed it. Impressive work! You clearly understood the structure of the sonata, and I enjoyed every note of it. Did you perform this piece yourself? I always admire fellow composers here who have written sonatas, because I have not yet acquired the capacity to achieve that.

Thank you very much, my dear friend, for your attention and appreciation of my sonata. This sonata holds a special place in my heart because I had to honor my beloved composer, which is very difficult since Mozart is unique. I worked hard to achieve this result. Once again, thank you. As for the performance, yes, I play all of my compositions myself. I record through GarageBand, and I have purchased Pianoteq 8, which I use as a plug-in for my recordings.

I would be especially delighted if you could also listen to my other pieces on my channel, particularly the sonatas in binary form. In these sonatas, I drew immense inspiration from Scarlatti, but I also combine all the influences and impressions I have from my favorite composers, mainly Mozart and Schubert. So, it is a blend of Scarlatti, Mozart, and Schubert, and I can say that the result is quite impressive. I look forward to hearing your opinion .

Gershwin: Yo bro, you seem cool, can I study composition with you? Ravel: Nah... Gershwin: Why not? Ravel: I don't want to teach-... I meant why become an awful Ravel when you could become a perfect Gershwin? Gershwin: %$!@?٪35@DF3#^... Gershwin died of a heart attack. No. Just kidding! But you get the point. And yes, I did enjoy The music.
