Night Traveller

When you drive at night, listening to the quiet, you can sense the world shifting around you as it resets itself for a new day. Like set pieces being moved backstage, you sit in the darkened world waiting to see what the next day will bring. The only light you see comes out of a solitary waffle house. You see a waitress standing on one side of the bar, and a line-haul trucker sitting alone on the other side. Everyone is alone with their thoughts.

This is a prelude for piano, guitar and bass that combines baroque, neo-romantic, modernist and jazz stylistic choices.
