Sonata for Trumpet and Piano op. 137 (1939)
Paul Hindemith (1895-1963)
The sonata opens with the trumpet proclaiming a sturdy theme over piano figuration to the performance direction mit Kraft (with strength). Two more ideas are presented, with the movement’s eventual form set out in the neatly symmetrical arrangement of A-B-C-A-C-B-A. The second movement has a quirky, whimsical air to it, somewhat like a comical march but with a pronounced undercurrent of tension. The last movement is the longest and the sonata’s center of emotional gravity. Entitled Trauermusik (music of mourning), it takes the trumpet, so often used as an instrument of brilliance and pomp and celebration, on a troubled, meditative journey that culminates in the somber intoning of the chorale-theme Alle Menschen müssen sterben (all men must die), which Bach had set as a chorale-prelude (BWV 643).
This sonata was one of several Hindemith composed in 1939, as part of his project to supply music of substance and challenge to serious amateur performers on various instruments. This particular work took on a depth quite beyond the scope of its companion sonatas; it became one of Hindemith’s most personal expressions, and in that sense suggests a link to such works as the opera Mathis der Maler and the more familiar three-part symphony he created from materials in that work? The music that became the flashpoint of his unplanned confrontation with the Nazi authorities in his native country.
In 1939, the year he composed this sonata, Hindemith was living as an exile in Switzerland, where he watched his own country annex Austria, occupy Czechoslovakia, and finally ignite World War II by invading Poland, while its leaders were intensifying their obsession with anti-Semitism and moving determinedly toward full-scale genocide. The Trumpet Sonata, perhaps to Hindemith’s own surprise, became a protest and a profound lamentation. Perhaps as a reflection of these ominous events, Hindemith’s Trumpet Sonata took on a rather somber hue. Hindemith held this sonata in high esteem. To a friend he wrote that “it is maybe the best thing I have succeeded in doing in recent times.”

Although the printed metronome marking is seldom observed, I believe 112 would be preferable to this 120.
