At night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. (H.P. Lovecraft)

These five movements conjure a sequence of images inspired by all things nocturnal. There is contrast between them, but there are also points of unity and the cycle forms a singular narrative.

This music is dedicated to my dear friends, Michelle Assay and David Fanning.
