Sonatina 小奏鳴曲

彼得-斯庫爾索普創作的《奏鳴曲》簡潔明瞭，不僅是斯庫爾索普首次公開承認土著文化對其音樂影響的作品之一，而且斯庫爾索普還借鑒了亞倫-科普蘭（Aaron Copland）[1941 年]《鋼琴奏鳴曲》稀疏、簡潔的語言，勾勒出其音樂習慣的未來方向

原文簡介:
Sonatina, succinctly composed by Peter Sculthorpe, not only is one of Sculthorpe’s first overt acknowledgements of the influence of Aboriginal culture on his music, but, taking his cues from the sparse, pared-down language of Aaron Copland’s Piano Sonata [1941], Sculthorpe also outlines the future direction of his musical idiom. In the first movement of this story from Central Australia, Yoonecara journeys to the land of his forefathers, the place beyond the setting sun: “For the journey of Yoonecara to the land of his forefathers, and the return to his tribe.” Following his arrival, the second movement depicts his meeting Byama, the Great Spirit, and his two beautiful daughters. In the last movement, Yoonecara, his mission successful, returns to his tribe, to much rejoicing. **Selected on the ABRSM Grade 7 Piano Syllabus 2015-2016.**
