Product Description

"This is a programmatic piece about nightfall, night, and the dawn. Having worked primarily nightshift for the past few years, my life began a somewhat alternative nature my day time was illuminated by the moon, and I watched the sun rise every day for three and a half yearsI saw the city through different eyes, and watched as various denizens of the night would emerge and cavort beneath "The Midnight Sun." I was exposed to an entirely different culture and learned that the city really didnt sleep after all. The piece starts with the decline of the sun as the shadows grow longer and the creatures of the night begin to emerge beneath the stars. Secondly, we observe the midnight moon which acts as our illumination in the dark of night. Continuing on, the piece begins its celestial dance among the stars of the Northern hemisphere and finally ends with the emergence of dawn the night slipping away like fragile tendrils of fog, or the vague ether of a dream." David Jaedyn Conley, 2005 "Composer David Jaedyn Conley moves easily between the stridency of the Moderns and the sweetness of the Romantics. He is equally adept at writing polyrhythmic ensemble percussion and lyrical contrapuntal melodies. The result is both lush and austere, always evocative". CNET.COM
