American composer/pianist Michael Guy's third piano sonata in 1, multi-section movement is excerpted from his collection called "Summer Scenes" Written in 1998, based on his youthful melodies from his early piano days with jazz influence by artists like Pat Metheny. Begins in a bright Eb major, Andante con moto. The second section in uptempo Eb minor is very classical and dramatic with 3 related fast cadenzas of runs and chords. An mp3 will be posted in his JzCDz.com storefront soon. Please see the preview here on lulu. Michael Guy has played and composed jazz influenced piano works since leaving music school ca. 1979 but his performing career was seriously interrupted by medical disability in the mid 80's. He still composes and records his own works. Please see his website under JzCDz.com
