MULTICOLORED REFLECTIONS WITHIN THE ORION NEBULA (2015)
Yegor Shevtsov, Piano
Dedicated to Yegor Shevtsov

The Hubble Telescope’s images of deep space have been an essential catalyst for seeking new thought and further understanding of the Heavenly bodies in the universe. I feel liberated when I ponder these fantastic images as starting points of compositional structuring and developing a sense of fantasy because these images are so far beyond our comprehension. The photos have also moved me to create new formal structures, as well as to find new modes of beauty. Contrasts also abound, when one tries to capture gaseous plumes gesticulating to create visual dances within the nebula. I must also state that I see references to Thelonious Monk, Olivier Messiaen, Sam Gilliam, Duke Ellington, Alma Thomas, Toru Takemitsu, Geri Allen, György Ligeti, Henri Dutilleux, Gerhard Richter, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Julie Mehretu, and Billy Strayhorn in the divine creation. I hope to write soon a series of multi-movement works for piano based on more Hubble Telescope images.
