Music of the Spheres

 
Music of the Spheres | Sheet Music


Product Description
The piece reflects the composer's fascination with the origins of the universe and deep space in general.

The title comes from a theory, formulated by Pythagoras, that the cosmos was ruled by the same laws he had discovered that govern the ratios of note frequencies of the musical scale. (Harmonia' in Ancient Greek, which means scale or tuning rather than harmony Greek music was monophonic). He also believed that these ratios corresponded to the distances of the six known planets from the sun and that the planets each produced a musical note which combined to weave a continuous heavenly melody (which, unfortunately, we humans cannot hear). In this work, these six notes form the basis of the sections Music of the Spheres and Harmonia.

The pieces open with a horn solo called t = 0, a name given by some scientists to the moment of the “Big Bang” when time and space were created, and this is followed by a depiction of the “Big Bang” itself, as the entire universe bursts out from a single point.

A slower section follows called The Lonely Planet which is a meditation on the incredible and unlikely set of circumstances which led to the creation of the Earth as a planet that can support life, and the constant search for other civilizations elsewhere in the universe.
