“A 30-minute soundscape of classical jewels: a pensive study for piano by Scriabin; Gluck's Orfeo lamenting the death of his lover Euridice; JS Bach on the hurdy-gurdy; the Kyrie from Arvo Part's Berliner Mass; a Chopin prelude from his Op. 28; an aria from John Adams's opera 'Doctor Atomic', sung by the character of Robert Oppenheimer; a Baroque dance from Peru; and a colourful Ravel trio. Producer: Juan Carlos Jaramillo”
