Phillip Sear plays a short sonata (really somewhere between a sonata and sonatina) from 1906 by the British composer Harry Farjeon (1878-1948).

Harry Farjeon (1878-1948) - brother of the poet Eleanor Farjeon - studied at the Royal Academy of Music under Landon Ronald. Although he wrote a piano concerto and sonata, he is remembered (if at all) for sets of short, light, piano pieces. You can read more about him here: http://bit.ly/2w0nZnq . Although all the movements of this work are well-written and fun to play, I particularly like the very short and serious second movement.
