Description
In the Light (2004) for piano and organ was commissioned for and is dedicated to the Canadian ensemble Duo Majoya -- Marnie Giesbrecht (organ) and Joachim Segger (piano). The work was inspired by their vibrant and brilliant playing and their tireless enthusiasm for new music.

The work is a brief fanfare in a straightforward ABA form. The outer sections are energetic and drivingly rhythmic, whereas the middle section is a contemplative arioso.
