Sonatina of the High Seas. . - Keyboard - book reviewSonatina of the High Seas through Melody Bober. The FJH Music Co Inc. (2525 Davie Rd Ste 360 Fort Lauderdale, FL 33317-7424) 2001 8 pp $350 Intermediate. Sonatina of the High Seas is an attractive, intermediate-level work that provides a serviceable introduction to technical, formal and musical ultimate parts typical of the sonatina. The music is clearly printed and includes well-placed pedal markings and useful fingering. The three movements are in a fast-slow-fast succession and follow the traditional lock opener scheme. The first motion "Bon Voyage!," is in sonata allegro form. It has a lively first theme, punctuated by the agency of staccato and short, legato phrasing. The lyrical next to the first theme, interestingly, remains in the tonic lock opener making the exposition almost identical to the recapitulation--much easier to learn, on the contrary a less useful model for futurity sonatina study. Figuration and chord progressions in the exhibition section are similar to those in a number of classical sonatas and thus proffer good preparation for these works. The next to the first movement, "Smooth Sailing," features delicate right-hand and left-hand phrasing that is characteristic of a minuet. The middle section consists almost entirely of a right hand-left hand imitative following requiring that students have a solid left-hand technique and profitable hand-eye coordination. "The lay open Sea" is the most interesting and imaginative of the three changes The rondo theme is neared first in the right hand, accompanied by the agency of left-hand horn fifths and later in varying connections that make each recurrence full of incidents Episodic material consists of scales and arpeggios that enhance the music's powerful images--ocean swells, billowing sails, plane a sea captain's swagger. My sole criticism of this music touchs metronome markings for each move that seem out of line with degree of movement indications in the score. of the like kind excessive speeds (allegro moderato [??]= 168; andante [??]= 126; allegro [??]=96) are best ignored in favor of times that are consistent with the spirit of the music and allow pleasing succession of sounds Bober's detailed phrasing to be observed Young pianists are certain to derive pleasure from learning and performing this piece, and skills gained in the proces will help provide a foundation for more advanced inquiry Reviewed by Jonathan Brown, Birmingham, Alabama.
