Sonata in D minor
Op. 9 for Violin and Piano from ''Karol Szymanowski - Works'' ed. by T. Chylińska, GA/CE B9 prepared by B. Konarska
Sonata in D minor is Szymanowski's earliest violin work and was written in 1904. In its conventional character one clearly feels the dependence on the violin sonatas of Franck ahd Brahms and the composer's desire to master the traditional, three-movement cyclic form. Sonata for violin and piano, a juvenile work, in spite of the fact that its style is still not crystallised, betrays the composer's growing interest in tone colour and foreshadows the bold and rich melodic line characteristic of Szymanowski's later works.
