Jazz Sonatina - piano.

100th birthday on 13 February 2011 Pütz' intention to bridge the gap between two musical worlds - of 'serious' and of 'light' music - preoccupied him for much of his life. Apart from contemporary music, he also wrote jazz-inspired works with an elaborate style - never primitive nor just 'pleasant'. 'Jazz-Sonatine' shows this combination of contemporary music and jazz, as is typical of Pütz : contemporary tonality and jazz harmony do not seem to stand in contrast to each other, classical forms and improvisational elements merge.
The three little pieces are perfect additions to the piano teaching repertoire and to youth competitions. Instrumentation : piano
