This exquisite, mobile-like, ever-focus-shifting music for three pianos is wonderfully performed by noted new-music champion Sarah Cahill. A 25-minute CD EP/Single. “If this is a long night, let it go on and on.” [Marc Geelhoed, Time Out Chicago] “It’s a beautiful and original piece, with ‘family’ links to such composers as Harry Partch, Henry Cowell, Conlon Nancarrow, and John Cage, and with allusions to ‘nature’ and the ‘East’.” [Int'l Record Review] “A commanding presence in the landscape of American music.... his music is passionate, fiercely intelligent and one of a kind. Gann’s music embraces a broad range of influences but sounds like no other.” [John Luther Adams, NewMusicBox (American Music Center)] “Long Night was intended to evoke Martin Heidegger's phenomenology of mood swings. Three unsynchronized piano lines flow parallel through sections of indeterminate length, overlapping like ripples from raindrops splashing into a pond in slow motion…. Sarah Cahill plays all three parts on this economical CD single, heightening the music’s gentle equanimity.” [Steve Smith, Time Out New York] “Best Albums of 2005.... The composer-turned-critic dusts off a minimalist piano sketch from his apparently not-so-misspent youth.” [K. Leander Williams, Time Out New York]
