Tolle Komposition und sehr professionelles Arrangement! Gute Instrumentierung und toller Aufbau!

The All Seeing-Sky
Concerto for two percussionists and orchestra
by Ioannis John Psathas
2021

Duration 22m

Written for - and dedicated to - Fabian Ziegler and Luca Staffelbach.

Commissioned by Orchestra Wellington (New Zealand), the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra (New Zealand), and City Lights Concerts (Switzerland)

In resistance to the fireworks-driven mega-spectacle of recent percussion concertos (some of which I’ve written myself), I’ve scored this work for a Mozart-sized orchestra and limited the solo parts to no more than marimba (soloist 1) and vibraphone (soloist 2).

There are three movements:
1. The Portals of Dis
2. The Upper World
3. The All-Seeing Sky

This concerto is inspired by a number of interwoven concepts. The phrase The All-Seeing Sky refers to both the omnipresent technological surveillance of the 21st century, and the ‘other’ omnipresence, God in his/her/its/their myriad historical chroniclings. 

Gustave Doré’s spellbinding illustrations of Dante’s Divine Comedy inspired the first two movements. The Portals of Dis depicts the (imagined) inner realisation that one is actually being ferried across the river Styx, to arrive – with a great welcoming fanfare – at the gates of Dis. The musical language of this movement is evocative of antiquity, particularly ancient Greece.

After having traversed the many levels of hell the travellers in Dante’s Inferno find the hidden road that provides the way back to The Upper World – and emerge back into our world, the bright world. The unsettled nature of the ending of this movement suggests that the world we live in now has more than a passing resemblance to hell as we imagine it.

The role of the two soloists in this concerto is fluid. At times the soloists play in virtuosic unison, and sometimes their two instruments are treated as one ‘meta-instrument’. Often the two soloists are foreground drivers of the music, other times they are equal partners with the orchestra. And sometimes they take on a background role of accompanying the orchestra (at the end of second movement, for example, the two soloists are providing a warm, quietly supporting and loving minimalist underpinning for the orchestra’s final utterances).

In December 2015 one of my life dreams came true: During the first Hollywood Scoring Open Orchestra Session, I was able to record my music with the fabulous Local 47 studio musicians at the Warner Bros. Eastwood Scoring Stage in L.A.
This was one of the most intimidating and most exciting moments in my life. Luckily it was captured on this beautiful video. Please enjoy!

Here is my first track in a while, It was the underscore to a new creative video by TheDuoGroup based on the Halo Franchise.

Last Stand

Made a live recording of my track Litte Swing, with The AronChupa Band (haha)

AronChupa - Little Swing (ACOUSTIC EDIT, ft. Doozie)

I started working on this track after I saw the “planetary landing” gameplay from “Star Citizen”. The first thing I made was the piano loop and I built everything else around it. The focus for me here was more on creating a kind of “exciting, adventurous” feeling (f.ex. when you’re going on a journey into the unknown) and not so much on a clear theme or melody. I used a lot of Reverb on nearly all of the instruments to get a very deep, open space. 
I hope you like it, feedback is always welcome!
