RELAXING with FIELD

Piano Sonata in E-flat op.1nr.1
 Field's three Piano Sonatas were published in London in 1801 as Opus 1 with a dedication to Clementi, seemingly marking the beginning of a possible career as a composer. The sonatas are each in two movements, lacking a central Adagio. They reflect contemporary influences, notably that of Clementi an of Dussek, who was in London in the 1790s. The sonata-form first movement of Sonata in E-flat major is followed by a lively Rondo, its principal theme accompanied by wide leaps in the left hand. 





Allegro moderato




Rondo (Allegretto)
