Violin Sonata in B Minor (1911) 小提琴奏鳴曲 小調 小提琴加鋼琴 博浩版

豪厄爾斯為成功申請皇家音樂學院獎學金而提交的作品首次出版。作品分為三個樂章，長達 40 分鐘，規模宏大。正如編輯保羅-斯派塞 (Paul Spicer) 在序言中所說的那樣，豪厄爾斯是一位有遠大抱負的嚴肅作曲家，他既熟悉古典形式，又瞭解現代發展。 前一年，豪厄爾斯經歷了沃恩-威廉姆斯 (Vaughan Williams) 的《湯瑪斯-塔利斯主題幻想曲》的首演，這後來被稱為他一生中最重要的音樂經歷。對奏鳴曲產生重大影響的還有埃爾加斯的《小提琴協奏曲》和《傑羅提烏斯之夢》。它是高級標準小提琴曲目的重要補充"

原文簡介:
First publication of a work Howells submitted in support of his successful scholarship application to the Royal College of Music. The work is in three movements, and at 40 minutes’ duration is on a monumental scale. As the editor Paul Spicer remarks in his preface, “Howells was marking himself out as a serious composer with big ambitions who knew his classical forms but who was also in touch with modern developments.” The previous year Howells had experienced the première of Vaughan William’s Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis, later to be described as the most important musical experience of his life. Other major influences on the Sonata were Elgar’s Violin Concerto and The Dream of Gerontius. A major addition to the advanced standard violin repertoire.
