Quantum Mysticism : for piano / Man-Ching Yu Donald
Author(s):
Yu, Donald
(Composer)
Description:
This work is inspired by the enigmatic nature of quantum mechanics, one of the most captivating branches of theoretical modern physics. The central concept posits that the momentum and position of a particle cannot be measured simultaneously; gaining greater accuracy in one aspect inherently compromises the accuracy of the other. The piece primarily consists of two contrasting gestures: static materials and rapid chromatic elements. The unpredictable emergence of these materials symbolizes the inherent uncertainty of this scientific principle. These distinct presentations seldom coexist; instead, they unfold one after the other.
