A collection of solo piano improvisations.
Ursa Major, the Great Bear, is the third-largest constellation, and its seven main stars make up the Big Dipper. The tracks include Alioth, Dubhe, Mizar, Merak and Alkaid.
Notes from Charlie: Improvisation is the mainstay of my life. Inside that ocean of harmony I find calm, and a connection to the cosmos. It's a meditation, and part of who I am.
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.
