Nocturne
Op. 62' for solo piano
Written in 1998 Nocturne was premiered the same year by pianist Karen Corbett in Ventura, California.
A lyrical, slow moving and introspective piece, it is heavily influenced by Jazz and 1940's South American Song style. These two elements are combined to create a mood of sadness and nostalgia not too far from that of the Blues and the slow Brazilian Chôro.
Miguel del Aguila writes: "I wrote Nocturne in just a few hours on a foggy afternoon in California. Its form and harmonic structure are very basic and the lack of development give this piece an almost folk-style flow where emotions are expressed with spontaneous simplicity and sincerity. 15 years later, I unknowingly returned to this style in Silence, a work for violin and piano that seems to continue the mood of this piece and to be related to it in its mood."
