A collection of solo piano improvisations.
Cassiopeia, the vain queen of Greek myth, sits in the northern sky, chained to her throne and circling the North Star. Her brightest star, Schedar, looks like a cluster of four but is really one star with three distant companions. The tracks include Schedar, Caph and Ruchbah.
Notes from Charlie: Music for a long, slow orbit.
Every piece in Constellation is an improvisation. Most came in the middle of scoring a film or working on something else, when I needed to stop and stretch out at the piano. Recorded across more than 25 years, they were released as 52 collections, one a week through 2023, each following the night sky. Every track is named for a star. 433 improvisations, around 30 hours of music. Creativity is infinite.
