"Music of the Spheres" by William L. Cahn (Performed by Elijah Jones)

"Music of the Spheres" was composed in August and September 2016 for Morris Palter. It is scored for drumset and vocalist reciting an original verse by the composer, with a background of music provided by the prerecorded audio. The title refers to a philosophical/cosmological concept proposed by the ancient Greek mathematician, Pythagoras. His experiments in the 5th century B.C. revealed profound numerical relationships within the musical tones produced by vibrating strings. The rhythmic relationships of tones in vibrating strings - heavenly music, but at tones so low as to be inaudible to human ears.
This performance was a part of my online senior recital to complete my Music Bachelors of the Arts Degree in Percussion Performance from the UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music (Class of 2021).
Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy my performance!
