A note from the composer:
“I composed The Lamplighter to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the original publication of A Child’s Garden of Verses in 1994 and Piano Safari’s release of newly revised editions of all four books from the Robert Louis Stevenson piano and poetry series.
The Lamplighter consists of five intermediate piano solos that fill the musical and technical gap between A Child’s Garden of Verses and Windy Nights and Other Tales. Various pianistic techniques are used to explore the imagery and emotions found in the poems.”
