Rain Worthington

Dream Vapors – selected works for orchestra

On Dream Vapors, her full-length solo debut on Navona Records, Rain offers a selection of her orchestral works, presenting intense dreams, intangible perceptions, and musically evocative elaborations.

Rain Worthington is a contemporary voice that demands to be heard. The present first collection establishes her as a unique orchestral exponent, an inspired artist saying something definite and compelling today.

    [Rain] has the ability to state her compositional case to us directly, as it were, in absolutely concrete if mystical terms. She somehow makes clear to us how we experience the transitional, impermanent and ever shifting quality of a later modernist world.

    Original Release 4/2011: Light and Shadow, Navona Records, NV5847

    Program note: Tracing a Dream taps into the impressionistic logic of emotions and dreams. Within this realm there is a fluidity of connections and sequences that is governed by emotional contexts, rather than rational order. Music has the capacity to heighten and distill emotions through juxtapositions that might otherwise be thought to be unlikely – comparable to dream imagery. – RW
