This sonata has two movements: the first, titled "Citadel", depicts a stronghold entirely made of black stone, with its halls vast and deep; the second movement, "Siege", sees the destruction of this place.

I wrote this piece to commemorate the hundreds of hours I spent building a castle in Minecraft with my cousin during COVID, a fun (and arduous) project that spanned many well-spent evenings. The piece will be premiered February 2023, specific date TBD.
