This five-part composition depicts the musical journey of various planets toward Earth: I. Uranus, II. Saturn, III. Jupiter, IV. Mars, V. Earth. Each part has its own unique atmosphere and tone, and an extensive set-up is used (a mix of melodic and rhythmic percussion instruments) to bring this journey to life.
