Piano Sonata in F Minor

Revived is the first movement of my Piano Sonata in F Minor. The movement opens with ominous tolling low F’s in the piano — almost like distant bells — before building into dramatic energy and renewal.

This is music about awakening, ignition, and inner fire returning.  Piano Sonata in F Minor
I. Allegretto – “Revived” Composed and performed by Paul Noble.

The second movement of my Piano Sonata in F Minor is a lyrical Romance in B♭ Minor.

After the drama of the first movement, this music offers warmth, tenderness, and stillness.

It begins with a sustained low B♭ — a grounding, peaceful foundation — over which a deeply romantic melody unfolds.

The movement has been described as something that would sit beautifully at a wedding — intimate, sincere, and heartfelt.

II. Romance – Andante Moderato

The final movement of my Piano Sonata in F Minor is a driving Gigue in A Minor.

Inspired by a Scottish 6/8 feel, the movement opens with octave quavers in both hands, propelling the music forward with energy and momentum.

A contrasting slow lyrical section offers breath and reflection, followed by a development featuring simple counterpoint in the style of Bach, before the opening theme returns and the sonata closes with a strong dominant–tonic cadence.

The sonata journeys from struggle, through love, to vitality.
