Aurora Harmonies

The Universe is full of such wonderful mysteries. We know why we have Aurora, as the sun’s energy interacts with the upper atmosphere. But why such beauty in this shimmering dance? Perhaps music can reveal inner harmonies, and help us appreciate these mysteries with awe and joy. French musician Catherine Brisset plays the cristal Baschet, a unique glass keyboard with fanciful metal shapes to help the mysterious sounds resonate. Here, she plays a variation on Bach’s Sonata #2, the Grave movement, with such subtle and emotive touch. We fly over and through the Aurora Australis, so artfully photographed by astronauts of ISS Expedition 67, on June 18, 2022. Series: "Arts Channel " [Arts and Music] [Show ID: 40317]
