 Re: Drucker and Poulenc sonata

I am working on this piece right now...

Here's what we discussed about it-

The piece is in memorium to a friend of his. We took the first movement to be like this--- The first part is like remembering the good times with this friend and the fun that may have been had. The slow middle section is like remembering that he is gone and will never be back, so it's sad. The last section (it says to play monotone) is like remembering those happy times again, but it's no longer a happy memory because there is a numbness - like the memories are now tainted by the sadness.

I love the second movement- I just think it's gorgeous.

I love the third movement and I like to think of it as "cheeky" - like an obstinant 5 year old who wants to get his own way, and one second is sticking out his tongue and say "neh neh neh neh neh neh" and the next is trying to be all nice and sweet and lovey... only to go back to his old ways and be thumbing his nose at you again... I think it's funny.

Good luck- it took me a while to really love this piece, but I think it's great now!!
