Pianist: Tom Armitage

As Above, So Below is a collection of five Vitruvian Nocturnes - nocturnes inspired and shaped by the nature and influence of Leonardo da Vinci's 'Vitruvian Man'.

This collection of nocturnes deals with the duality between the stillness and fantasy of the night and, as Vitruvian Nocturnes, thus also dealing with the duality between materialism and humanism. Each nocturne is accompanied by a quote attributed to a humanist author. The theme of duality, prevalent in Catharism, is continued in these nocturnes with references to Catharism's cultural cousins - the troubadours.
