Program Note

In English

Nocturne (2007)
piano solo

The piece is in three parts:

1. Andante cantando poco rubato.
2. Vivace moderato con anima.
3. Andante cantando poco rubato.


In the first part, a lyrical melody is heard over gently falling arpeggios in the lower middle range of the piano, interrupted by an expressive burst that culminates in intense music before returning to the initial lyrical mood.

The middle part is quick, like a dense fog of music, where tones emerge like small drops of sound.

In the final part, the music from the beginning returns, varied in both form and melodic material.

In Danish

Nocturne (2007)
klaver solo

Værket er i tre dele:

1. Andante cantando poco rubato.
2. Vivace moderato con anima.
3. Andante cantando poco rubato.


I første del høres en lyrisk melodi med blidt faldende akkordbrydninger i klaverets lave mellemregister, afbrudt af et mere ekspressivt udbrud, der kulminerer i en fortættet musik for derefter at vende tilbage til den lyriske stemning fra starten.

Den midterste del er hurtig, som en tæt tåge af musik, hvor toner stikker ud som små dråber af lyd.

I den sidste del vendes tilbage til musikken fra begyndelsen, varieret i form og melodisk materiale.
