Dianne Goolkasian Rahbee: Piano Sonata No. 1, Op. 25

This engaging and accessible contemporary sonata has a broad emotional range and is full of intensity. Each of its four movements makes a strong statement with relatively few notes. 'I have used the 12-tone language in my own unique way.' - Rahbee. The fourth movement, 'Toccata,' is often performed as a solo; the arm clusters are often a special subject of conversation among pianists and audiences.
