  A long-form ambient composition, Music for A Summer Evening is a work comprised of one long, developmental track of over 60 minutes. This CD grew out of a site-specific, installation work of the same title, which involves 128 musical fragments presented in a "mobile" structure - asynchronously and randomly.

Though the work is technical in its construction and execution, the music on this disc provides a splendid backdrop to a long twilight. This is a perfect ambient music, compelling, evocative and strange in nuance yet able to blend perfectly into the sonic landscape. This recording can be listened to with rapt attention in headphones, for example, or in a variety of "ambient" settings.

Music for a Summer Evening is a disc which embraces the general aesthetics of "classical" ambient music but also presents materials derived from state-of-the-art computer music techniques. Beautifully recorded, mixed and spatialized in enveloping dynamic stereo.
