Nachtlieder (Night Songs) is Salonen's early work dating from 1978. It is in fact a sort of descendant of Alban Berg's Vier Stucke fur Klarinette und Klavier op. 5 (1913). Like Berg, Salonen has condensed his Expressionist night songs into concise, miniature-like proportions. The four-movement work is dominated by a meditative mood and the expressive melodies of the clarinet. This arrangement for ensemble by prof. Gregory Barrett is scored for flute, tenor saxophone, percussion, violin, viola, violoncello, double bass and the solo clarinet.
