Shadowy
lines traced in fading
colors suggest a mountain
range in silhouette
against the night sky in
this mesmerizing and
poetic miniature for solo
harp. The composer takes
the instrument’s full
range as her canvas,
carrying the listener’s
imagination from distant
peaks to shrouded
foothills. Particularly
memorable is a recurring
tremolo motifxa0 played
with a wooden drumstick
on the instrument’s
lowest strings. DARK
MOUNTAINS is artistically
refined, but not
virtuosic, making it a
novel and approachable
addition to the
repertoire for developing
and professional harpists
alike.
Chen Yi
