Program Note
Stars have had their sights set on me for quite some time. 
In 1989, I set to music the poem Crazy without you by the American poet Anne Waldman in which a whole series of stars are described in their various colours. In 2006, L1014 for percussion was created, inspired by Reginald Smith-Brindle's percussion composition Orion M42, and in 2022, the electro-acoustic work Albireo, which was inspired by the vastness of space. The piano composition Beta Lyrae (2023) and the electro-acoustic composition Jezero (2024) - named after a Martian crater - both received their astral titles in retrospect. And now Gesang der Sterne (Song of the Stars)! 
Since 2020, a NASA team has been working on making space tangible with the help of music. In what is known as data sonification, elements of an image are assigned pitches and volumes. Whether this process does accurately reflect the actual sound of the Milky Way can only be guessed. In space, there is nothing that can carry sound. There is absolute silence there.

Programmnotiz
Sterne haben es schon seit längerem auf mich abgesehen. 
1989 vertonte ich das Gedicht Crazy without you der amerikanischen Poetin Anne Waldman, in dem eine ganze Reihe von Sternen in ihren vielfältigen Farben geschildert werden. 2006 entstand L1014 für Schlagwerk, das von Reginald Smith Brindles Schlagzeugkomposition Orion M42 inspiriert ist, und 2022 das elektroakustische Werk Albireo, bei dem die Weiten des Alls als Anregung dienten. Die Klavierkomposition Beta Lyrae (2023) und die elektroakustische Komposition Jezero (2024) - benannt nach einem Marskrater - erhielten beide ihre astralen Titel erst im Nachhinein. Und nun Gesang der Sterne! 
Ein Team der NASA arbeitet seit 2020 daran, das All mit Hilfe von Musik erfahrbar zu machen. Bei der sogenannen Datensonifikation werden Elementen eines Bildes Tonhöhen und Lautstärken zugewiesen. Ob dieses Verfahren dem tatsächlichen Klang der Milchstraße gerecht wird, lässt sich nur vermuten. Im Weltraum gibt es nichts, das den Schall tragen könnte. Dort herrscht absolute Stille.

Gesang der Sterne

first rework on reaper
 it,s the same patch as the previous song and from which these last two experiments originated but with a different configuration
 it took several days of trying to find optimal audio

still in progress

I used these samples from freesound.org, as raw as was possible:
50422 Church prayer, by ERH
188938 Call to prayer, by musesdelight
496748 Child vocal chops, by f-r-a-g-i-l-e
345386 KLINGON poetry, by fiatknox
In the intro (reversing beep) I used a binaural recording, so it gives a different result if you use headphones (although I mixed on speakers):

Lyrics:

[Intro]
Why
Did you
Leave?
I
Need
Some
Company

[Verse 1]
Why
Did you
Leave?
I
Need
Some
Company

[Verse 2]
Walls
Are
Caving in
I
Think
I am
Fading
It's
Not your
Fault
But
You could
Still fix it

[Pre-Chorus]
Why
Did you
Leave?
I
Need
Some
Company

[Chorus]
No, I can't do this
I don't wanna be here
I can't see anything
So lonely with my fears
Why did you leave?
I just need some company
I don't wanna fold in
But it's getting
Difficult
I think I slowly
Forget, who I've been
(x2)

[Outro]
I
Am
Too
Late
To
Be forgiven...
