Midday Sun, Midnight Moon was written to illustrate the many different cycles we all experience in our daily lives, many of which we are not even aware but that affect us almost constantly. Some cycles follow prescribed periods while others are more fluid and unpredictable. Many musical compositions follow cyclical patterns as well. This overture-style piece has two contrasting sections followed by a return to the original section, thus completing the cycle. This contest and festival piece features syncopation and dotted-eighth/sixteenth rhythms. Midday Sun, Midnight Moon is correlated with Tradition of Excellence Book 3, page 20.
