about

Like most of my albums, this collection has gone through several names during its birthing process.

I considered all of the pieces nocturnes because they all started as improvisations that I played in the evening. The early ones were recorded when we lived in Upper Hartfield, a small hamlet in Sussex in England – very close to the bridge where Winnie the Pooh played Pooh Sticks with Christopher Robin.

That was many years ago, and it has taken me some time to work with those early improvisations and turn them into compositions. But to me they still felt like nocturnes.

The set of 10 Nocturnes were written over a number of years. They are reflective pieces, all composed for solo piano by Roger Evernden. They are reminiscent of the haunting, meditative compositions on earlier albums – like Serendipity 1, 2 and 3 on The Journey We All Make album; or April Sadness or Solitude on The Innocence of Spring album, and the hugely popular Late At Night I Think Of You from Improvation.
