Echoes in Variation brings together the classical inspirations for the musical themes in Night of Hunters – a song cycle by Tori Amos. The songs from Night of Hunters are mainly variations on the classical pieces presented here as arrangements for solo piano. Each arrangement is faithful to the original piano score, but with cleaner formatting and clearer performance directions.
