Sonata No 3 for Piccolo and Piano

The first movement of this varied piccolo sonata would make a good contrasting piece for an audition. Mostly highlighting agile fingerwork and flexible articulation, there is short lyrical section to showcase tonal control and tuning. The piano part shouldn't present too many problems for the accompanist which is an added bonus. The second movement Cantilena could have been written as a film score with it's lush harmonies and meandering melody, and the closing Presto is a typical Gary Schocker 6/8 romp!
