XVIII:5, as a delightful example of the galant style at its most elegant — a work of wit, grace, and Classical clarity that showcases the keyboard in dialogue with a small ensemble.

His catalog includes two sonatas in the baroque style, a keyboard partita, a suite for double-reed trio, a pair of piano sonatas in the classical style, \u003cem\u003eSongs Without Words\u003c\/em\u003e loosely modeled after Mendelssohn, and a number of more Romantic works closer to Schubert in spirit. Forton Music has published three volumes of his music for woodwinds (Opp. 1–3), his \u003cem\u003eFour Romances for Cor Anglais and Piano\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 6, his \u003cem\u003eSuite for Oboe, Cor Anglais, and Bassoon\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 7, and his \u003cem\u003eSonata No. 2 in E minor for Oboe and Piano\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 8; Broadbent and Dunn released his \u003cem\u003eSonata No. 1 in D Minor for Violin and Piano\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 4, and \u003cem\u003e“Raindrops” Fantasia for Violin and Piano\u003c\/em\u003e, Op. 5. An accomplished pianist, Cavallaro was a top prizewinner in the J.S. Bach International Competition for Pianists and subsequently performed Bach’s Six Partitas to the highest critical acclaim at Carnegie Recital Hall. A true Renaissance man, he served for nine years as music critic for the \u003cem\u003eNew Haven Register\u003c\/em\u003e, has edited and revised \u003cem\u003ePaganini’s Fire\u003c\/em\u003e (Stay Thirsty Press, 2011), and maintains a therapy practice in Arlington, Massachusetts. In 2015, he was admitted to Vox Saeculorum, a group of contemporary composers writing in the baroque style, and that year wrote a conjectural completion of \u003cem\u003eContrapunctus XIV\u003c\/em\u003e from Bach’s unfinished \u003cem\u003eArt of Fugue\u003c\/em\u003e. Cavallaro holds a Doctor of Musical Arts (D.M.A.) from West Virginia University and has served on the music faculty of several colleges.\u003cdiv style=\"clear:both;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ayotte Custom Musical Engravings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45150887313517,"sku":"636266668311","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/6750\/1677\/files\/636266668311-l.jpg?v=1777498681","url":"https:\/\/www.ayottemusic.com\/products\/haydn-clavier-concertino-in-c-major-hob-xviii-5-digital-pdf-download-arr-cavallaro","provider":"Ayotte Custom Musical Engravings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
