Three Summer Scenes

for solo piano

1. Dancing

2. Awake at Night

3. Morning Rush

This suite came about during the summer of 2007. I had written two short piano pieces – “Dancing” and “Awake at Night” – when I decided to tie them together with a third piece “Morning Rush.” The pieces are rhythmic, lyrical, and largely diatonic. They are meant to be descriptive of some of the fun, excitement, and reflection that summer breaks can have to offer.

Performance time is roughly 7’.

This suite also exists in a four hand version, arranged by Paul Alan Levi.
