The majestic beauty of the night sky has been a perennial source of inspiration throughout history, spawning myths and tales that have endured for millennia. On SKY LEGENDS, composer David Owens transforms the ancient Greek constellations of the zodiac into miniatures for four-hand piano, turning the epic stories into colorful soundscapes. The musical illustrations of Hercules, Orion, and more match the intensity of the original mythology and animate the sky’s static imagery with simultaneous ferocity and grace. These works, along with Owens’ Sonata for Cello and Piano and two soliloquies, highlight the composer’s penchant for powerful, expressive music that commands attention.
