Instrumentation: Tenor Saxophone and Piano Duration: 12’ Level: Intermediate Program Note: Originally written for Duo Reencontros (Sofia Brito, oboe, and Ingrid Sotolarova, piano), this sonatina is a reimagining of my Trio Sonata, Op. 19, which featured an extended English horn solo. It represents a turning point in my path—from a self-taught composer to a formally trained one—and was the work that earned me a composer residency with the Cascais and Oeiras Chamber Orchestra.
