Description:
The ideas for this piece arose during my stay in In the summer of 1992 I crossed the city centre of Darmstadt several times by tram in between my hotel and the concert hall. I observed the calm of the night and the movements of the day. In 'Night & Day', I strive for simplicity by making use of basic material: fifths and fourths in the pensive opening, followed by a dance of the dominant and subdominant around a tonic, followed by a parade of melodies and rhythms. Both instruments start a dialogue dissolving into the sonority of the gorgeous low registers from the beginning.
