1. Composed in 1956 by Bohuslav Martinu, the Sonatina for Bb Clarinet and Piano exemplifies neo-classical music. This single-movement work is structured into three distinct sections: Moderato, Andante, and Poco Allegro. The rhythms evoke the feel of a polka and a march, featuring surprising syncopation throughout. As one of Martinu's later compositions, it was created in New York following his time in Paris. Bohuslav Martinu (1890-1959) was a Czech composer and violinist known for his diverse stylistic interests, including romanticism, jazz, and expressionism, though he predominantly produced neo-classical works, which encompass 16 symphonies, 14 ballets, and 15 operas.
