The piece is about the story of Romeo and Juliet, and Professor Schellenberger makes a comparison between Prokofiev's ballet and Poulenc's sonata. It is a piece which talks about Love and Dead. Schellenberger gives some examples which prove the relationship between Poulenc's piece with Prokofiev's work, e. g. the first chord of the sonata. He also talks about that character and tempo, as well as the harmonic analysis of the movement. Schellenberger gives a deep explanation about the composer Francis Poulenc and his work.

Other topics covered in the class are phrasing, fingering, dynamics, projection of the sound, contrasts, rhythm accuracy and tempo.
