Hecate Strait, off the northwest coast of British
Columbia, a body of water unusually shallow for its
size, is prone to surprise storms of unpredictable
ferocity and duration. It is a fascinating body of
water, and the inspiration for Hecate Nocturne, for
Large Orchestra, a one-movement orchestral evocation
of a day on Hecate Strait s waters. The piece
incorporates birdsong from the region, as well as
First Nations folksong, rendering a soundscape
uniquely British Columbian. The calm, mystery, and
excitement of the music will appeal to concert-going
audiences, especially to those interested in the
sounds of British Columbia, and the piece is of only
moderate difficulty for a large orchestra. The full
orchestral conductor s score is given. In addition,
a detailed analysis, by the composer, is included,
for orchestral directors, music theoreticians,
students of composition, and interested musicians.
It reveals the means of construction of Hecate
Nocturne, so that the reader may understand better
its harmonies, melodies, form, and sound effects.
