Up and away : for string orchestra / Giel Vleggaar, 2004-2005
Description:
Program note (English): Up and Away borrows its motto from a song of the soundtrack of the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind from 2004. Just like the main characters in this film, Up and Away illustrates the desire to escape: a relentless movement upwards to freedom, away from reality. But there is no place to run to. Every ascent lands in the same place, a fun-house mirror where the one reflected is only distorted momentarily, but fundamentally cannot change. Stasis within motion, a hamster in a wheel: Up and Away confronts listeners with the constancy of being, no matter how high they might fly or how far they might run. - GIEL VLEGGAAR
