Programme Note
Composed in 1946, Piano Sonata No. 3 in F Major, Op. 46 is one of Dmitri Kabalevsky’s major works for solo piano. Published in 1948, the sonata is known for its accessible character and has become one of his most frequently performed piano sonatas.
The work combines brilliant and energetic writing with more lyrical and atmospheric passages, particularly in its expressive central section. Through its clear musical language and strong contrasts, the sonata reflects Kabalevsky’s ability to combine virtuosity with direct melodic expression.
