• This work was rendered from MIDI using the Vienna Symphonic Library.
• This work was originally completed and uploaded to SoundCloud on 5 December 2020.
• This work is Copyright © Ross Williams 2020. All rights reserved.
• This work is presumably also Copyright © Dario Galimberti (because he created the MIDI).

* The MIDI was created by Dario Galimberti and was obtained from:
   http://www.kunstderfuge.com/beethoven/variae.htm
* I do not know whether Dario Galimberti created the MIDI by entering the score or by playing the instruments, or some combination.
* I have changed the speed of the piece throughout the piece and this is my doing, not an aspect of the MIDI.
* The piano is the Vienna Symphonic Library Steinway D.
* A special mention to the Kush Novatron Compressor which was used on this track on the master bus, and which provided a lot of warmth.

Lost In The Snow

'midnight' for harp and fixed media, was featured in Radiophrenia Glasgow's 2020 broadcast of radio and sound art.

This work exists as an exploration of a limited number of sounds and techniques employed on the harp, which throughout the work undergo a number of transformations until they reach obscurity. The name is an acknowledgement of the impact the current pandemic, and the associated quarantine, has had on many people’s daily lives, including their sleep schedules. It is an ode to all those who are now regularly experiencing many more midnights awake, and the constant flicker between the calm or uneasy nature of the quiet night.
