Cosmic Concerts

There are concerts in the sky playing cosmically on high— be they grouping in formation or harmonious creation, fashioned synesthetically, astro-energetically, with conclusion or collusion, stellar scenes in grand profusion, gravitationally steady, starry outbursts brilliant, heady, like orchestral symphony from the brass and tympani, viols, woodwinds, (theoried strings), to the charms a keyboard brings— measureless concerti vast merging present with the past seamlessly, or so it seems, as in firmaments of dreams… ~ Harley White < May 2017 > * * * * * * * * * Inspiration was from “Cosmic Concert for GAM 2017” which was livestreamed with composer Giovanni Renzo, described as “a collection of compositions and improvisations conceived as a visual and poetic exploration of the universe…” Inspiration also came from the article, “Galactic Wreckage in Stephan’s Quintet”: “A clash among members of a famous galaxy quintet reveals an assortment of stars across a wide color range, from young, blue stars to aging, red stars.”
