Hamelin plays Dukas - Piano Sonata (4th mvt) Audio + Sheet music

Paul Dukas' epic Piano Sonata, performed by Marc-André Hamelin, live at concert.

Marc-André Hamelin says: "The style in itself is very close to Franck's harmonic and emotional world, but it is much more extended than anything Franck ever wrote for the piano. We should feel lucky enough that Dukas gave up this really wonderful edifice of a work. I really see it as a cathedral, almost. It is quite long - about 45 minutes - and it could be thought as the first great piano sonata of the twentieth century.

(...) The fourth movement has a lengthy introduction, briefly quoting the Hammerklavier Sonata. The grand, heroic finale has many beautiful and memorable themes that bring the work to a close in an optimistic blaze of glory."
