There is a sense of suspense and uncertainty in taking steps in the night. It brings to mind the evocative aural qualities of someone moving through the dark – at times boldly, other times more carefully measured. – RW
“Steps in the Night” was the winning suggestion entry by J. Shea in a “title contest” sponsored by the Cello Museum.
Video features bassist Joel Braun’s beautifully sensitive performance of the version for unaccompanied double bass at the Butler School of Music, University of Texas/Austin.
