Aurora Orchestra - 'Music of the Spheres' Trailer
Описание
Deutsche Grammophon is delighted to announce the release of Music of the Spheres, Aurora Orchestra’s debut album for the Yellow Label. The album is based on the ancient Greek concept that the movement of the planets produces a celestial harmony of profound beauty and significance. This poetic idea of music in the cosmos inaudible to the human ear became an enduring concept for thinkers and scientists in understanding the universe for over two thousand years, from Antiquity to the Renaissance.
The album marks the first time Aurora has applied its trailblazing memorised-performance approach to a studio recording. At the heart of the album is a memorised performance of Mozart’s 41st and final symphony – the “Jupiter” – while Max Richter’s Journey (CP1919) was commissioned especially for this project and is inspired by the discovery of the first pulsar star, CP1919. The work uses rhythms governed by the same ratios used by ancient astronomers to describe the orbits of the planets and – inspired by Aurora’s “by heart” projects – Richter created it to be performed by players from memory. When performing live Aurora presents the work in complete darkness before the orchestra is illuminated within a light installation that combines the curvatures of an orchestra with a beautiful 17th-century diagram of Pythagoras’s harmonic order of the cosmos.
