2.
Sonata no. 2 per pianoforte.
Composed in 1980. A compact tripartite sonata: fast – slow – fast. Technically difficult to play, but very pianistic. Some \u2018simple\u2019 melodic fragments give something to hold on to when listening to this music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CD 4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1.
Adaptation of Sonata opus 49, nr. 2 by van Beethoven (1976).
The reason for this composition – and no. 2 on this cd – was the need for works for piano and four-handed piano to be performed with amateur symphony orchestras.
The first performance of both compositions took place during concerts of the Gouds Symfonie Orkest. The orchestra of which Jan van Dijk was conductor for many years.
Soloist in composition no 1 was IJsbrand van Dijk, in no 2. – the four-handed sonata by Mozart – the soloists were the pianists IJsbrand van Dijk and Jan van Dijk (son and father).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.
Adaptation Sonata in D (4hnd) by Mozart (1980).
Both adaptations (1. and 2.) are illustrative for the numerous orchestrations which Jan van Dijk produced
for the Gouds Symfonie Orkest. A great number of them can be found in the FASO-library, some at Donemus and the others in the archive of the Stichting Jan van Dijk – Muziekwerken.
The pianists on the CD are IJsbrand and Jan van Dijk. The orchestra is conducted by Jan van Dijk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4.
Pianosonate 1 (1942)
This work was composed in the spirit of the times. In a musical idiom which the German occupier was reluctant to tolerate. After the liberation in 1945 it was first performed by George van Renesse in the USA.
On this cd Klaus Trapman is the pianist. He shows not only command over the melodic lines of the first sonate, but also the technique required for the introvert style of composing which is so characteristic for Jan van Dijk\u2019s compositions at the end of the 20th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5.
Two Scherzi per Pianoforte (1988).
According to the composer a tribute to Chopin and Schubert. Pianist: Klaus Trapman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Number 6 and 7 are sonatines with the length of compositions by Clementi. They are performed by the composer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8.
Sonatine 1 for Piano (1944).
A sound spectrum as in the first sonata: post-impressionistic. Pianist: Paul Prenen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9.
Six epilogues for two piano parts (1972).
The performing pianist first makes a recording of part 1 and then plays part 2 as a counterpoint to part 1, thus producing a duet as a single performer.
On this recording this is done by the two pianists: the late Fran\u00e7ois Mollinger and Jacob Boogaard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CD 5<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1.
Tetrade\/Deux Sites particuliers for Wood Orchestra (1994).
\u201cTetrade\u201d, a suite for wind orchestra in four parts, is followed by a composition for an unusual scoring: For violin and wind orchestra: \u201cDeux Sites particuliers\u201d. The composition was inspired by a stay in some very characteristic regions in the south-east of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both works are performed by Harmonie Koning Wilhelmina from Wamel in The Netherlands under the direction of Jan Bosveld. The violin solo is played by Marijn Drolsbach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.

6.
Musique \u00e0 trois (1967).
For recorder, flute and harpsichord. The most is made of the musical possibilities of the ensemble, resulting in great temporal structures.
The \u2018old-fashioned\u2019 scoring with the \u2018modern\u2019 notes result in attractive suspenseful music. It is performed by Het Brabants Barokensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7.
Braconnage (1997).
Braconnage means poaching. If \u2018Meister Johann\u2019 had been added to the title it would have been evident that this is a cycle of waltzes \u00e0 la Johann Strauss for clarinet, violin, viola and cello. Be it with an ironic intention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
