Description:
Gliese 581 is a dramatic 18 minute orchestral work by Latvian composer, Juris Karlsons. The impulse behind Juris Karlsons' Liepāja Concerto No 9 was news coverage of the astronomical discovery of 'Gliese 581', a red-dwarf planet purported to harbour conditions possibly conducive to life. In Karlsons' own words, this concerto for orchestra addresses "the necessity of searching, erring, finding and longing". - Music Web International There is a powerful environmental subtext here that implores us to care better for the planet we inhabit. This format is an A4 study score. Full score and parts available for rental.
