Violin Sonata (Debussy)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Violin Sonata in G minor, L 140, for violin and piano was composed by Claude Debussy in 1917. It would be the composer's final composition before his death in 1918 from colorectal cancer, forming the third work in what had originally been conceived as a cycle of six sonatas for various instruments. The work is notable for its brevity; a typical performance lasts about 13 minutes.
[edit] Movements
The work has three movements:
- Allegro vivo
- Intermède: Fantasque et léger
- Finale: Très animé
