Luxi Nocturn is a perfect choice to celebrate the light of life in a sophisticated way, especially for anyone's looking to honour a generally quiet friend, who liked to play or hunt after midnight.
- Nocturn comes from Latin nocturnus, which means 'pertaining or belonging to the night'. In the early Church nocturn came to mean a service that would be recited after midnight.
- The first item from this series (No. 94 Halcyon Nocturn) was additionally inspired by the word for a ‘kingfisher’ in Ancient Greek - ἀλκυών (via Latin halcyon/ alcyon) because halcyon can also mean ‘calm/ quiet/ peaceful’. This is presumably because a bird (identified with the kingfisher) was said to breed in a nest floating on calm seas during a period of 14 days of calm weather at the winter solstice (so called halcyon days – Latin ‘alcyonei dies’, Greek ‘alkyonides hemerai’).
