In the sonata, Janet Beat juxtaposes two contrasting tempi: in the first movement, the violin plays at a calm cantabile and the piano a vehement scherzo. Both instruments unite in the second movement in a lullaby. The mood of the first movement dominates the finale, although both instruments unitedly exchange the tempi. Moderately difficult.
