(Memorial for the Columbia Astronauts). Composed by Peter Eotvos. This edition: piano reduction with solo part. L'oeuvre porte le sous-titre de "Memorial for the Columbia Astronauts". Elle a été commissionnée par l'Académie du Festival de Lucerne et l'orchestre symphonique NHK, Tokyo. Piano reduction with solo part. Duration 21 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q6622. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6622).Eötvös wrote this piece in memory of the seven astronauts who lost their lives in the Space Shuttle Columbia tragedy in 2003. The number 7 determines the musical, rhythmic and formal structure of the work: 49 musicians are divided into seven groups, and as well as the solo violin there are six further violins arranged correspondingly around the hall; and the solo violin itself portrays each of the astronauts and their different origin, from America via Israel to India, in folkloristically tinged cadenzas. 'The violin concerto Seven is a very personal monologue and the musical expression of my sympathy towards the seven astronauts who lost their lives while exploring space in fulfilment of a fundamental dream of mankind.' (Peter Eötvös)
