Frank Bridge: Mid of the NightProduct InformationCatalog Number:0571520200ISMN:9780571520206 / 9780571520206Product Type:ScoreLength:104 pagesPublisher:Faber MusicOverviewMid of the Night by Frank Bridge is a substantial and immersive orchestral composition, presented in a 104-page full score. This expansive work reveals Bridges mastery in capturing the subtle moods and poetic stillness of the nighttime through music. From the opening bars, listeners are drawn into a richly textured soundscape where darkness, mystery, and introspection unfold.Bridges orchestration is both lush and refined, employing a wide palette of instrumental colors to evoke the various emotional states associated with nightsolitude, contemplation, quiet beauty, and even a touch of unease. The harmonic language is deeply expressive, with evocative melodic lines that develop organically and build toward powerful climaxes.Though less frequently performed than some of his contemporaries works, Mid of the Night stands as a testament to Bridges sophisticated compositional voice, bridging Romantic expressiveness with early modernist nuances. The piece offers both technical challenges and interpretive richness for conductors and musicians, making it a compelling choice for orchestras seeking depth and emotional resonance in their programming.Hungarian Translation – Overview (ttekints)Frank Bridge Mid of the Night (Az jszaka kzepe) cm mve egy nagyszabs, atmoszfrikus zenekari kompozci, amely 104 oldalas partitrban jelent meg.
