Alexina Louie
Music from Night's Edge
, 1986 Commissioned by: The Orford String Quartet with the assistance of The Ontario Arts Council, 1986 “
Music from Night’s Edge
covers a wide range of night images from a primitive ritualistic dance on an empty, stark, moonlit plain to the mysterious personal intensity of the second movement, a glimpse into the starry night to, finally, the bright flickerings of moonbeams on a windy night sporadically glancing off rustling leaves and illuminating rocks, a spot of earth, trees, wildflowers, a path through the forest. On a second level the work at times explores the edge of madness from the pagan dervish music of the first movement through the internalized passion of the second and finally the quirky, somewhat schizophrenic nature of the fourth.”

Music from Night's Edge
, 1986 Commandée par : Le quatuor Orford avec une assistance financière de Conseil des arts de l’Ontario, 1986 «
Music from Night’s Edge
couvre un vaste éventail d’images nocturnes : danse rituelle primitive sur une plaine dénudée et austère, baignée de lune, intensité personnelle mystérieuse du second mouvement où on entrevoit la nuit étoilée et, finalement, vacillements lumineux de rayons de lune par une nuit venteuse ricochant de temps à autre sur les feuilles froissées et illuminant les pierres, un morceau de terre, les arbres, les fleurs sauvages, un sentier dans la forêt. À un second niveau, l’œuvre explore par moments le seuil de la folie, depuis la musique païenne des derviches dans le premier mouvement, en passant par la passion intériorisée du second mouvement, jusqu’au caractère vaguement schizophrène du quatrième mouvement. »
