About Sonate

The Work

From 1953 to 1956, Jean Perrin composed 5 major sonatas, successively for horn, violin, cello, and flute, all with piano accompaniment, as well as a sonata for piano.

Jean Perrin's music is often extended by bi-modality, and the three movements of the sonata center around the warm tonality of E flat or its dominant B flat (in the second movement), a wonderful key that well suits the horn.
