The last decades of the 20th century saw man's first steps in space exploration. Since the first moon landing by Neil Armstrong in 1969, these adventures in outer space have captured the public's imagination and have given birth to scores of science fiction movies, books and TV series that have tackled the subject. Infinity and Beyond... takes as its inspiration the wonderful film scores of composers such as John Williams and Jerry Goldsmith, who have almost invented a style which could be called 'space music'.Opening with a rhythmic bass figure, Infinity and Beyond... begins with a robust introduction in 3/4, which leads to the main theme in 4/4, played by the full band. Ashort bridge passage, utilising the interval of a fourth, leads to a modal central section, featuring first the trumpets and then played by the whole band; this in turn leads back to a repeat of the introduction until the main theme returns to bring the piece to a close.

In de laatste decennia van de twintigste eeuw vonden de eerste stappen op het gebied van de ruimtevaart plaats. Sinds de eerste maanlanding door Neil Armstrong in 1969 zijn er vele films, boeken en televisieseries in het genre sciencefictiongemaakt. Infinity and Beyond... is gebaseerd op de filmmuziek van componisten als John Williams en Jerry Goldsmith, van wie je haast kunt zeggen dat ze een stijl hebben uitgevonden die we 'space music' zouden kunnennoemen.

Infinity and Beyond... wurde von wunderbaren Filmmelodien von Komponisten wie John Williams und Jerry Goldsmith inspiriert, die mit ihrer Musik zu Science Fiction-Filmen einen Stil geschaffen haben, den man Weltraummusik nennen konnte. Spatestens seit der ersten Mondlandung beschaftigt das Thema Weltraumabenteuer die Menschheit - die Musik von Philip Sparke regt zu neuen Phantasien an.

La seconde moitie du XXe siecle a ete marquee par le debut de l'exploration de l'espace. Depuis les premiers pas de Neil Armstrong sur la lune en 1969, ces aventures dans l'espace ont stimule l'imagination de tous et ont donne naissance a de nombreux films, livres et series televisees de science-fiction. Infinity and Beyond... (L'infini et au-dela...) s'inspire des extraordinaires musiques de films de compositeurs tels que John Williams et Jerry Goldsmith ; ces derniers ayant, pour ainsi dire, invente un style que l'on pourrait appeler 'space music' (musique de l'espace).
