Shadowy lines traced in fading colors suggest a mountain range in silhouette against the night sky in this mesmerizing and poetic miniature for solo harp. The composer takes the instrument’s full range as her canvas, carrying the listener’s imagination from distant peaks to shrouded foothills. Particularly memorable is a recurring tremolo motif  played with a wooden drumstick on the instrument’s lowest strings. DARK MOUNTAINS is artistically refined, but not virtuosic, making it a novel and approachable addition to the repertoire for developing and professional harpists alike.
