The composer writes:
I grew up with woods behind my house, and the nocturnal noises and images that I remember were the inspiration for these eight short sound pictures on the theme of night.
The music moves first from the tranquility of dusk and evening mists, to the emerging starlight of twilight.
As night falls it takes on on a darker quality with shadows and dreams disturbing peace and calm.
The night birds and bats swoop and flit past as they seek their prey, but gradually dawn approaches and peaceful sleep is restored.
The morning is heralded in the joyful exuberance of the dawn chorus.
