I. Dawn The greenish sky glows up in misty reds, The purple shadows turn to brick and stone The dreams wear thin, men turn upon their beds, And hear the milk-cart jangle by alone. 

II. Dusk The city’s street, a roaring blackened stream Walled in by granite, thro’ whose thousand eyes A thousand yellow lights begin to gleam, And over all the pale untroubled skies.

III. Rain at Night The street-lamps shine in a yellow line Down the splashy, gleaming street, And the rain is heard now loud now blurred By the tread of homing feet.

Astor Piazzolla (Argentina, 1921-1992) Invierno porteño from The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires, “Winter”(1969) (arranged for piano trio by Jose Bragato).
