Psalm 94: Sonata in C minor

Description

Inspired by his mentor Franz Liszt's Piano Sonata in C Minor composed five years prior, Julius Reubke's PSALM 94 SONATA IN C MINOR depicts carefully specific passages taken out of the 94th Psalm, which is a lament against wickedness in this world. As with the Liszt Sonata, the middle movement begins with a chorale, and the final movement is a fugue with an unusually lengthy and chromatic subject. All three movements have no pause between them, making the piece a substantial performance. Edited by Joseph Galema.
