Sonata form is one of the oldest composition structures in classical music but it\u2019s being rediscovered, and in many cases re-purposed, by contemporary composers.
\nWhat is the lasting appeal? We\u2019ll play music by four composers looking to the past for formal inspiration. This episode also features a tribute to David Maslanka who passed away shortly before the taping.
