What is this piece?

I think it's by Barber, but unfortunately I've lost the programme notes so I can't find out for sure. I swear I remember Josh Hillmann posting a video recording somewhere, but I can't find it.

Credit goes to pianist Mark Viner who gave a recital here at my house earlier on this year.

Henrah
