Mysterium

Contemplative Sunset Concert at Shadow Rock UCC In the late 19th century, the mystic composer Scriabin envisioned a performance of his music with the backdrop of the sunset and Himalaya mountains. He called it “Mysterium,” defining this integration of all elements as a 'universal work’ This concert is my effort to re-create his concept by integrating music, dance, and the sunset in an unifying experience. Even the light changes in the room from a setting sun becomes part of the musical performance. The music features chants from the French monastic community Taizé, hymns, classical music, gongs, interpretive dance and African drumming
