Even with the simplicity of four people inside a corner diner at night, it evokes a vivid feeling in the viewer, as if you are standing across the street observing this scene first hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen I was asked to compose a piece for the great jazz flutist Ali Ryerson and the Los Angeles Flute Orchestra, I knew I wanted to compose a jazz suite. The composition is set in three distinct movements that each represent different times of the night: early evening, late night, and early morning. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first movement, Nightfall, is a brooding noir-style movement that begins slowly and builds in intensity as it progresses before returning to the slow opening material. The middle movement, Midnight Waltz, is a lively jazz waltz that creates a dialogue that alternates between the soloist and ensemble. The final movement, Crack of Dawn, is an up-tempo movement that features unpredictable syncopated rhythms with many changing time signatures to represent the bustling energy of the city that is about to awake.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuration: 15 minutes. For advanced players.
