Downloadable and printable PDF edition. The lyrical title of Lotta Wennäkoski's Mellan natt och regn (Swedish for "Between Night and Rain") comes from a poem by Tua Forsström (b. 1947), and the music has both rainy and nighttime moods. The first ones are attracted by different ways of playing - for example, by tapping the strings of the instruments with one's fingertips. A small rain stick (a percussion instrument) and a bowl of peas are also conjuring up rainy sounds.

The nocturnal atmosphere, on the other hand, draws loosely and freely from the works of two past colleagues on the same subject: Béla Bartók's night music style and Frédéric Chopin's Nocturne no. 9.

The work was commissioned by guitarist Petri Kumela and composed in the spring of 2024 for the Åland-based Katrina Kammarmusik Festival.

This product includes score and parts (guitar, violin I, violin II, viola and violoncello). Available also as a printed edition (9790550119529).

Duration: c. 15'

Guitar equipped with slide and small bowl of dry peas. Cello doubling a small rain stick (a toy).
