Insomnia Dance tries to capture the tossing and turning of nights when vivid dreams and half-remembered stresses sneak into the semi-conscious mind.  Two main ideas circle throughout the work: slow, ominous piano chords juxtaposed with long flute lines and fast, slightly off-balance rhythmic dance sections.  The latter gradually takes over, and the music works into a frenzy before finally exhausting itself.
