"How can I translate this feeling,
From the language that Hope speaks?
Whose voice has never wavered,
Through all those weary years..."

I thought G flat major was a very pretty key, and wished there was more music out there in it. I first thought of doing a symphony using every key that ended in G flat major, then settled on just this sonata. Perhaps last year or earlier this year at the latest, I heard the composer Ji Pyeong Kwon's song Harmony of Arirang, and also wanted to do a song that had a similar sentiment. So, this sonata is both those things.

The exposition uses the F flat double harmonic major scale. Included here is the coda, which is notated but silent.
