Composer Martin Amlin is also an outstanding pianist, and his pianistic writing shows idiomatic flair and flash honed into remarkable form and expression. Piano Sonata No. 6 has no barlines or movement divisions. Opening with the tempo marking "Bold," the sonata wears its formal mantle as hard as granite, yet interwoven with tenderness, and with expressive lyricism in relief to an unmetered flow not unlike what Ives described as "prose" within his own musical poetry. Andrew Willis has recorded this powerful sonata for Albany Records, on a CD that also includes Eight Variations, Five Preludes, and Piano Sonata No. 7.
