Product Description

Donald Ashwander's solo piano composition, "The Garden at Night," is a hauntingly beautiful waltz that conjures images of moonlit gardens, where shadows dance among the flowers and the air is filled with a sense of mystery. The composition invites the listener to become a wanderer in this nocturnal oasis, where each note is a step into the unknown and every pause is filled with anticipation.

The pianist is invited to explore the depths of emotion that lie within the composition, embracing the shadows and nuances that give "The Garden at Night" its distinctive character. The beauty of the piece lies not only in its melodic grace but also in the subtle tension that underlies its enchanting surface.

At times, "The Garden at Night" pays homage to the romantic spirit of Frederic Chopin's compositions. Ashwander skillfully incorporates elements reminiscent of Chopin's waltzes, creating moments of yearning that echo the emotional landscapes of the great Romantic era. This nod to Chopin adds a layer of classical elegance to the piece, bridging the gap between the past and the present.
