Would anyone ever listen to this if Glenn hadn't recorded it? I very likely wouldn't have. It's well worth having listened to.

@PENNSY671E When you say ''Land on one of those'' Is it the interval itself that is center of this system of harmony or is it a pole from it?
-
Is this a double fugue?
-
thank you so much
-
In my opinion, this sonata ranks with the Art of Fugue & the Hammerklavier.
Highly recommended!

The quartal harmony, based on perfect 4ths, allows linear patterns to land on one of those intervals and establish itself as a temporary tonal center. The genius of Hindemith is how he manages to work all of these temporary tonal centers into a sophisticated composition and return, at the end, to the original tonal center. I always liked to refer to his style as "floating tonality".

I find this music to be very emotional. Those of you that are claiming that it lacks emotional substance simple don't understand. I'm sorry if I'm hurting someone's feelings but that is how I see this issue. This is ignorance vs. understanding.
