This is a short Violin Sonata in the classical style, named Amadeus since the first movement is heavily influenced by the early Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
It consists of three movements:

1. Allegro giocoso (Sonata form) 
2. Adagio poco doloroso (ABA form) 
3. Tempo di minuetto (Minuet and Trio) 

The "Amadeus" sonata was composed almost by accident after a class in chamber music where I had to substitute for the pianist in Mozarts Eb Sonata Kv. 26.
As I came home after rehearsal I composed the first movement and the similarities with the Mozart are clearly heard in the beginning of the movement.
A couple of days later I composed a complementary Minuet and Trio and thought the work was finished.
A month later however I felt that the work needed a contrast so I decided to complete it by composing a short slow movement in the parallell minor (fun fact: this is actually the first time I have ever composed in the key of B minor) 
The movements are bound together by their opening motives which all have a similar figuration.

Sonata No. 2 "Amadeus" in D Major Op. 25, for violin and piano (complete)

I am a music teacher at Oskarshams Folkhögskola, where I teach classical singing, composition, music theory and chamber music. 
I am also a singer with primarily art songs on my repertoire, a hobby composer and poet and a founding member of the Mönsterås Jazz and Chamber Music Society.
I studied composition at Ingesund College of Music and Baroque counterpoint at Uppsala University and mostly write vocal music for song and piano, and/or choir but eventually compose for other instruments and ensembles as well.
I have been called "a radiant talent in finding the essentials in different musical styles" (Arvika Nyheter, December 4, 2006) and regional news paper Barometern wrote that my music shows "good insight in choice of melody and harmonic part writing" (September 25, 2012).
My music has been performed in Austria, Canada, England, Germany, Sweden and USA.

"Three nocturnal Songs Op. 11", song cycle of three songs for soprano and piano. Premiered by Cecilia Alrikson and Natalja Shakova in Oskarshamn, Sweden in 2018.
