BRUBECK: Nocturnes
Dave Brubeck�s Nocturnes are small, lyrical pieces that can be played by children and savoured by adults. Longing, tenderness, and nostalgia are the predominant themes, linking them to Chopin�s nocturnes. Both composers explore the mystery and melancholy that take over after dark, the nocturne�s time to flower. As Brubeck himself writes in his liner notes, �...all of these pieces rise out of my personal life, and it is gratifying to hear them so splendidly recreated by the artistry of John Salmon�.
