Nightscape - Anti-Isometrics

[Nightscape]

I feel more confident with this one for some reason.

I am attracted principally to the first section i.e. before the rhythmic bit at about 4:25. It seems to be an expansion of two or three little motifs in various positions which constitutes a compact piece by itself. Comparisons with late Frank Bridge in matters of harmony and style, particularly parts of his sonata and Gargoyle are too tempting to avoid. Parts of the final third are so reminiscent of Gargoyle that for a moment I was wondering whether you had been listening to a lot of Bridge. Probably not, of course, and its keyboard figurations just happen to be convenient, effective ones used and discovered independently by many people.
