Epilogue—Voici le soir (Night has come) 跋—夜晚降臨 此曲的歌詞亦為萊納．瑪利亞．里爾克(Rainer Maria Rilke)所寫的法文詩。勞律森以豐富而帶有爵士色彩的調式和聲，再次激發了聽者對夜色與愛情的想像！在無伴奏人聲的吟誦之後，鋼琴再次加入，呈現與第一樂章相同的主題，全曲最後在縈繞不已的神秘氛圍中悄然結束…. voici le soir, pendant tout un jour encore je vous ai beaucoup aimées collines émues c’eSt ...

The text draws from (and paraphrases) several sources: contemporary media, Emma Lazarus’ “The New Colossus,” the Bible’s Matthew 25:31-40, currency, and others. The changing meters of “Border” fill the work with an up-tempo, rhythmic energy that propels it forward. Campbell’s piece hardly relents, even as the pace slows this work presses forward with a colorful and often modal harmonic language. “Border” is a call for juStice, empathy and compassion, a summons to our collective conscience.
