Garner, L.-Nocturne at Sea-V

Nocturne at Sea reflects on the nature of water in the more specific context of a mirror reflecting natural moonlight on the ocean. The piece asks its performer to play both structured and improvised musical sections in an effort to depict this imagery in detail. Starting as a direct depiction of light, the music of the nocturne deconstructs into the sounds of a gentle tide washing ashore. Nocturne at Sea presents a musical challenge for both its performer and its audience while remaining accessible through its strong thematic communications.
