NOTES

The Nocturne for Piano (1993) has the character of an improvisation. It aims to suggest a typical

night music with an initial sense of stillness and mystery which turns gradually into a storm. The

end is vague and suspended.

In order to better indicate the character of this composition, a particular notation is used where the indication ”senza tempo, a piacere” appears. Here the rhythm is completely left to the taste of the interpreter, but it can be suggested from the different spacing between each note. In these sections accidents apply only to the note that follows.
