A Performance and Brief Discussion of Antonin Dvorak's Violin Sonata in G Major, op. 100
Savana A. Ricker* and Nabil J. Pettit
Dr. Sam McClure, Faculty Mentor
We will be leading a brief discussion on Antonin Dvorak's (1841-1904) Violin Sonatina in G Major and then performing two of the four movements. The four short movements of the sonatina each display a simple and clear formal structure containing themes similar to those housed in his other American chamber works such as Indian melodies and Negro spirituals. The sonatina was published by Simrock in Berlin in 1894.
