Sunbeams
Warming of the earth’s surface creates a buzzing of the air, which is musically interpreted
1986-1998 (33’00”)
Orchestral music
“Sunbeams” is the second composition of a trilogy for orchestra (Sunstructure (1982), Sun noise (in planning)). The picture of the sunbeams, which, for instance, in the case of a thunderstorm, break through clearly visible from under a cloud, caused me to write this tripartite composition (Sunheat, Clouds, Astral). Various musical styles like minimal music, pop music or sound-sheets composition are strictly separated here, or used in an interwoven pattern.

Warming of the earth’s surface creates a buzzing of the air, which is musically interpreted by the instrumentation of “Sunheat” in the higher registers of the instruments and the crotales sounds. From different metals, heated earth, bronze is created, the material from which the crotales are made.
Clouds (clouds)

Clouds, clouds of sound, constantly changing formations, shifts, overlays, shapeless, ungraspable, sound.
