Since then composers such as Chopin, Debussy and even composers of the twentieth have been using the title for their compositions using the lyrical melody and broken chord accompaniment texture that has been characteristic of this type of composition since it’s inception. Lashley’s six nocturnes for guitar follow the original tradition of taste and imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLashley’s use of harmonics in \u003cem\u003eStarlight\u003c\/em\u003e is to the ear what the twinkle of a distant star is to the eye, leaving the listener feeling as if they have been soaring among the constellations of the night sky.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bnlp6H2h3dA\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the gentle flow of a river the second nocturne, \u003cem\u003eDreaming\u003c\/em\u003e, begins with an ethereal, rolling C minor arpeggio patiently waiting adrift for its melody to ride atop it. Slumber comes to one’s heavy eyelids upon hearing the whole tone scale run later in the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMoonlight\u003c\/em\u003e begins with a delightful imitation between the upper and lower voices — question and answer, a conversation between the two parts, developing into a melody and accompaniment fabric with moonbeams dancing from the rippling current of arpeggios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe repetitive rhythmic figure in the opening of \u003cem\u003eWanderer\u003c\/em\u003e conjures up an image of a lost, restless soul’s plod through the darkness of night in search of something they never find. The rhythmic motif is ever present throughout, symbolic of sameness and an unresolved fulfilment of the will.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnticipation builds as the chords arise in the introduction of \u003cem\u003eRomance\u003c\/em\u003e leading up to the first theme. A flurry of melody notes glide through the range of the guitar while supporting bass notes march on, some in a chromatic fashion. This set of nocturnes ends with the simple title, “Rain”, with the use of the tremolo technique to emulate a nighttime shower.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BERGMANN EDITION","offers":[{"title":"Self-Print (PDF)","offer_id":12911454289973,"sku":"BE-181025","price":12.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Print on Demand","offer_id":12911454322741,"sku":"BE-181025p","price":20.63,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/1718\/9173\/products\/BE-181003-Lashley-Six_Nocturnes_-_EDIT_-_with_fingering_Page1_0.jpg?v=1540918869","url":"https:\/\/bergmann-edition.com\/en-jp\/products\/lashley-six-nocturnes","provider":"BERGMANN EDITION","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
