THE EMERGENCE OF NIGHT (1992) for flute and piano (with an optional double on celesta) by Robert Frank. This beautiful, sensitive work follows the form of the poem The Emergence of Night, also written by the composer. Throughout the composition the flute sound emerges from sustained piano sonorities. Like the poem, the music presents an allegory of approaching and passing over the brink of death in the symbolism of daytime fading into night. Recorded on the CD Night Thoughts and Fancies (6 30) Grade IV.
