First Movement: Maestoso
Fourth Movement: Allegro
At its premiere during a recital at Wigmore Hall in 1963, the second and third movements of this work were presented with the corresponding movements of Sonata No. 3 inserted, transposed by a semitone. Subsequently, it was newly premiered in 1994 at the British Music Information Centre as a two-movement composition, without these inserted sections.
The jazz-influenced rhythm in the Allegro movement reflects Williamson's past experience as a nightclub pianist.
