Sixth of a series of programmes of sonatas by Hindemith
(Piano Sonata No. 2: tomorrow)
Hindemith's three piano sonatas, which continue this series, were written in 1936. The first was inspired by a poem of Hölderlin, "Der Main", in which the poet declared that however far he might wander from his homeland he would never forget the river Main, by whose banks he had spent so many happy hours. It is perhaps not without significance that Hindemith, himself a native of Frankfurt-am-Main, was obliged to leave Germany not long after writing this sonata. The sonata has five movements; the first and fourth are fairly short, forming preludes to the longer movements that follow (Deryck Cooke)
