==Composition==
The piece was first titled ''A Contemplation of Nothing Serious or Central Park in the Dark in ‘The Good Old Summer Time’'' (in comparison to ''A Contemplation of a Serious Matter or The Unanswered Perennial Question''). Ives wrote detailed notes concerning the purpose and context of ''Central Park in the Dark'': This piece was composed in 1906.
This piece purports to be a picture-in-sounds of the sounds of nature and of happenings that men would hear some thirty or so years ago (before the combustion engine and radio monopolized the earth and air), when sitting on a bench in Central Park on a hot summer night.〔Ives, Charles. 1978. Central Park in the Dark, ed. John Kirkpatrick Hillsdale, N.Y. : Mobart Music Publications.〕
The piece is scored for piccolo, flute, E-flat clarinet, bassoon, trumpet, trombone, percussion, two pianos and strings. Ives specifically suggests the two pianos be a player-piano and a grand piano. The orchestral group are to be separated spatially from each other. Ives described the role of the instruments in a programmatic description of the piece:
