PLANET is a set of three short orchestral pieces inspired by views of our planet, and galaxy, photographed from outer space. These are: (1)\"The blue marble\"\/Apollo 17 (2)\"The pale blue dot\"\/Voyager 1 (3) Cluster NGC 6355 \/Hubble Space Telescope Musically, the three movements are primarily studies in texture and harmony. (1) explores a wide, almost- static set of chords (2) adark, thin atmosphere, briefly illuminated towards the end by shafts of sound (3) a dense collision of instrumental groups, eventually forming a rich harmonic mass. It may seem strange to have explored such a huge, cosmic subject by means of a smallish Mozart-sized orchestra. My inspiration here was a visit to the ingenious Eise Eisinga Planetarium at Franeker in the Netherlands (completed in 1781, and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.) Built in the sitting room ceiling of a modestly sized house, and operated by a clockwork-style mechanism in the loft, it accurately represents the changing positions of the earth, sun, moon and five neighbouring planets, in real time.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 01, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47469648642297,"sku":"9798350145083","price":20.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/OwAkymBq6P9798350145083.webp?v=1772485953","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/bell-planet-for-chamber-orchestra-study-score-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
