	Sonata (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The sonata da chiesa, generally for one or more violins and bass, consisted normally of a slow introduction, a loosely fugued allegro, a cantabile slow movement and a lively finale in some such binary form as suggests affinity with the dance-tunes of the suite.
		The style is still traceable in the sonatas of the later classics, whenever a first movement is in a uniform rush of rapid motion, as in Mozart's violin sonata in F (Kochel's Catalogue, No. 377), and in several of Clementi's best works.
		The piano sonatas of Scriabin would begin from standard forms of the late romantic period in music, but would progressively abandon the formal markers which were taught, and would be composed as single movement works, he is sometimes thought of as a composer on the boundary between romantic and modern practice of the sonata.

	Sergei Prokofiev's Violin Sonata No.2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		He wrote a Sonata for Flute and Piano, a task he called "perhaps inappropriate at the moment, but pleasant." The Sonata was premiered that December in Moscow.
		Written is unshakeably classical sonata form (even to the repeat of the exposition), it is unashamely diatonic - almost as firmly rooted in tonic and dominant as anything written a century and a half before.
		Because of its double life (it was already being performed as a violin sonata less than a year after its flute premiere) the piece has had even greater exposure, and has become a familiar favorite.

	Musical Forms - Sonata
		Only towards the end of the period, in the mature violin sonatas of Mozart and Beethoven, and in the latter's cello sonatas, are string and keyboard instruments treated as equals.
		Among sonatas in the smaller second category are those based on a programme, like Liszt's Après une lecture de Dante, fantasia quasi sonata, or those which experiment with structure, such as the same composer's single-movement Piano Sonata in b Minor.
		The break with tradition is evident both in those sonatas by Bartók, Stravinsky, Poulenc and Hindemith which look back to a much earlier age and in the piano sonalas of Barraqué and Boulez, which have no links of form or genre with any previous Sonatas.

	The Romantic Violin Sonata
		If the sound of solo violin is too dry, or just a single line of melody would not appease the listener, then an accompaniment of any other instrument would make a violin sonata.
		The violin sonata is one of his late compositions, where he showed his insight of musical beauty and form to the fullest.
		In the sonata, he applied the 'cyclical' form of composition, ie having the same motif being subjected to different manipulations in all the four movements of the violin sonata.

		In the repertoire of a violin soloist the most important musical forms are the concerto with orchestra and the sonata for violin and piano.
		In a sonata with piano the violinist is more exposed, and while he or she does not have to compete with a whole orchestra for the attention of the audience, the violinist carries a greater interpretive responsibility.
		Beethoven, a transitional figure between the Classical and Romantic styles, standardized the sonata for violin and piano as a composition in three or four movements in which the two performers are more or less equal collaborators.

		Despite its somewhat scholastic structure, this sonata is live, significant music, in which genuine individuality is expressed, though not with perfect freedom.
		This work is less than half as long as the first sonata; the first movement of the first sonata is by itself nearly as long as the entire second sonata.
		This second Violin Sonata is a landmark in his evolution.

	Beethoven: Violin Sonata no. 5 in F, "Spring"
		In this violin sonata, Beethoven gave the violin an equal voice along with the piano.
		In early Classical Period, usually a violin sonata was called 'Piano Sonata with Violin as Accompaniment', but Mozart started to give both instruments the same importance in his late violin sonatas, and Beethoven successfully continued this trend and created some of the greatest violin sonatas ever written in music history.
		Throughout the movement, the violin and piano exchange conversation equally, unfailingly discussing the jollity of spring.

		Sonata in C for Keyboard and Violin, K.
		It does infact encompass several of Mozart's firsts as a composer, for example it is Mozart's first work incorperating the violin, it is his first work with more than a single instrument, and it is his first work in the form sonata.
		The keyboard and violin interact in various ways throughout the piece: the violin echoing the tune of the keyboard; the two moving in synchronisity; and the violin forming a tune with the keyboard forging a baseline.

		Handel's violin sonatas, familiar to violinists and chamber audiences, have been inexplicably neglected on disc.
		The CD opens and closes with sonatas that are authentically Handel's and written expressly for violin: the Sonata in A Major (HWV371), notable for its virtuosic treatment of violin and continuo parts and its noble melodic lines.
		Another, the Sonata in E major (HWV373) is excluded, "not because of its questionable authorship but because of its inferior quality," he adds.

	Bach Violin and Trio Sonatas CD
		The Sonatas on this disc were composed at the Court of Cöthen between 1717 and 1721 — a period which Bach himself described as the happiest years of his life.
		During this period he wrote much of his chamber music; violin concertos, flute, violin, and trio sonatas, keyboard music, the sonatas and partitas for unaccompanied violin, the suites for unaccompanied violoncello, the six Brandenburg Concertos, and probably the orchestral suites.
		If two of the works on this disc, the Violin Sonata in G Major BWV 1021 and the Trio Sonata in G Major BWV 1038 sound similar, it is because they share the same bass line - an interesting example of the baroque art of "variation on a bass line".

	Contrasts and Comparisons from Baroque to Modern: Tartini's Devil's Trill Sonata (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		What makes the Devil’s Trill Sonata such an excellent example of the striking contrasts between baroque and modern violin performance is the fact that the best-known version of this sonata is not in its original form, but in an arrangement by Fritz Kreisler (1875-1962).
		When Tartini wrote and applied the bowings to the Devil’s Trill Sonata, he was using a bow that was categorized as pre-Tourte and a violin that was still in baroque condition.
		violin was less rounded than its modern counterpart, which meant that there was a lesser degree in difficulty in playing double stops when compared to the modern violin.

		The year before, he had written a violin sonata whose last movement was far too big for the rest of the work; in order to solve the problem, he began to compose a new sonata that would live up to the grand proportions of this finale.
		The equality of violin and piano, as well as their essential difference, is established at the very outset, in the Adagio sostenuto: first the violin declares the opening theme; then the piano restates it, but heads immediately into the minor.
		This Sonata began life as a Flute Sonata, but the virtuoso David Oistrakh persuaded Prokofiev to revise it for the violin, and it was published after the war as Prokofiev’s Sonata No. 2 for Violin.

		The Violin Sonata in A major was done in the last decade of his life.
		The interesting part for me is that, as the preface says: " the autograph and the first edition both reveal a system of phrasing by which identical motifs are varied in accordance with dynamic changes by applying different phrasing...." Franck uses different phrasing for identical motifs.

		Sonata No 1 for Violin and Piano (1994) is cast in the two-movement form that a number of Liebermann's instrumental sonatas share -- most notably his incredibly famous Sonata for Flute and Piano (a work that has entered the standard repertory of American flutists).
		In these two movement sonatas, an extended slow first movement is followed by a much shorter and fast second movement.
		While not as musically memorable as the famous flute sonata, the violin sonata is attractive, particularly in its bouncy second movement [listen -- track 6, 3:00-4:00].

		Saint-Saëns was a child prodigy who, at age four and a half, appeared as pianist in a Beethoven violin sonata.
		As one writer noted of the Sonata: “Its intricate trills and double stops appear to be academically as well as demonically designed to develop the left hand.” The sonata, with its alternating slow and fast movements common to the time, finds the violin prominent throughout.
		This is hardly unexpected when one recalls that violin accompaniment at the time came from the light-sounding harpsichord, hardly a partner in impact as would be the pianoforte in later years.
