Night-Thoughts (piano piece)
Night-Thoughts is a piece for piano solo written by Aaron Copland in 1972 for the fourth Van Cliburn International Piano Competition.

The piece is subtitled "Homage to Ives".  It is about eight minutes long.

The subtitle was added after the Copland had written the piece. According to the composer, "[t]his has not prevented performers and critics from finding Ivesian allusions in the music". In particular, a horn-call motif at the beginning of the piece has been linked to the opening of Ives' The Unanswered Question.

The Unanswered Question
The Unanswered Question is a musical work by American composer Charles Ives.  Originally paired with Central Park in the Dark as Two Contemplations in 1908, The Unanswered Question was revised by Ives in 1930–1935.  As with many of Ives' works, it was largely unknown until much later in his life, and was not performed until 1946.

Against a background of slow, quiet strings representing "The Silence of the Druids", a solo trumpet poses "The Perennial Question of Existence", to which a woodwind quartet of "Fighting Answerers" tries vainly to provide an answer, growing more frustrated and dissonant until they give up.  The three groups of instruments perform in independent tempos and are located separately, with the strings offstage.

"Estate agent" also remains the current title for the person responsible for the management of one group of privately owned, all or mostly tenanted properties under one ownership. Alternative titles are factor, steward, or bailiff, depending on the era, region, and extent of the property concerned.
