Composed by Traditional. Arranged by David Warin Solomons. 20th Century,Contemporary. Full Performance. Duration 87. David Warin Solomons #3386805. Published by David Warin Solomons (A0.1059455).

An atonal piece satirically based on "Twinkle twinkle little star" (known as "Ah, vous dirai-je maman" in Europe) and represents a supposed reaction from Pluto after it was relegated from "planet" to "dwarf planet" by astronomers here on earth.
Of course Pluto is still there, merely changed in the human taxonomy, which deems it to be no longer a planet. Similarly "Twinkle, Twinkle" is no longer a nursery rhyme but a strange atonal piece with memories of its past self moving towards an unknown space. It will be curious to know at which age a child recognises the twinkle-twinkle motif in this new, totally untraditional version. However, atonal though it is, it still appears to have some kind of home.
Performed in 2014 by various musicians in Costa Rica
the editor and producer was Marco Antonio Molina Perez.
