A Hymn for the Clearest of Skies 6​.​55 AM

from Aurora Musicalis by Sounds of Space Project

/

about

It’s breakfast time at Halley and the strong activity of the pre-midnight and early hours has passed. If we had been sleeping we would have missed it all. We now enter a very quiet period, consisting of spherics and quiet background hiss. A few very weak whistlers can be heard in the background after minute 02:00. This piece is in C minor. It seemed fitting to improvise a Hymn for this new day of 'sound'. The harmony is “older” than we usually hear on a piano, based on organ and viol music of the 15th and 16th Centuries.
