In his fourth guitar piece entitled Sonata, Turina features the classic sonata form in three movements of which the middle section contrasts with the rest of the work. The composition is very reminiscent of the instrumental sonatas written at the end of the Baroque era. It is almost devoid of Spanish flavor, although at the end of the third movement the flamenco aesthetics come to the foreground. Sonata was completed in 1931 and a year later premiered at the Academia de Santa Cecilia by Segovia who praised the work for its tenderness and poetry.
