Very beautiful harp accompanied by mysterious sounds. Exciting insight into deep space.

Hi Bruce, gosh I see I have some catching up to do on your site, yay... have been offline for far too long.. lovely silver shivers of sound.. a dreamy stellar vibe.

Always killing it man!  Another cool and deeply rich track!

I love the whimsical curving whistle sound, seems to be drawing the shape in the picture... and based on your description, I believe that was the intent.

Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia @john-marc-ventimiglia for creating the “gliss” program that is used to create the outline of the hourglass shape and short glisses in this piece.
For harp, strings, flute, virtual instruments and percussion.
The James Webb Space Telescope  spotted a blazing cosmic hourglass filled with vibrant colors and hiding a fledgling star, or protostar, at its heart. The blazing formation within the Taurus star-forming region and the protostar within it has been hidden to telescopes by a dense, dark cloud of gas and dust.

The protostar the image centers around is hidden from view in the neck of a dark, hourglass-shape cloud of gas and dust. The dark line across the middle of the neck is a protoplanetary disc — dense gas and dust that could form a planet in the future — about the size of our solar system.

Mysterious, Magical, Music is Wonderful!

Thanks for visiting!  Please feel free to share my music.  Enjoy!

I studied music composition in the 1970's and received a degree in music composition and theory. I wrote music for many years but decided never to  make a career of it.  In 2014, I retired from business so I could devote myself to my true passion, composing music.  I am currently involved in writing music for Danse Etoile Ballet (www.danseetoile.org) and collaborating with other musicians on SoundCloud.

NOTE: there is no compression added to the tracks in order to preserve the full range of dynamics. You may want to listen with headphones or increase the volume on some tracks for the best listening experience.
