This tiny piece was written as a response to hearing the premiere of Nicola LeFanu's momentous orchestral work The Crimson Bird on 17 February 2017. Nicola was my teacher and supervisor from 1986 to 1989, during my studies at King's College London. Although my formal study with her lasted just these three years, her influence on my creative life has been immense and invaluable, and continues to be felt in every piece I write. Luna ... is marked 'A starlit lullaby'. Its final notes, E and F, supply the letters of Nicola's surname missing from the title. The work was recorded by Philippa Harrison on Return of the Nightingales-Music for solo piano (Prima Facie 2017). - Sadie Harrison.
