The programme is inspired by the theories of Johannes Kepler (1571 - 1630), 
the mathematician and astronomer, who was very much concerned all of his life with 
the connection between practical music and cosmology. He felt strongly that music 
mirrors the cosmos and used phrases such as 'the Song of the Earth' and 
'Nature's secret whispering'. He broke from his contemporaries who thought 
that the motions of the planets and other heavenly bodies actually made sound, 
but thought that those motions and all of the geometry of the heavens were reflected 
in the most perfect polyphonic pieces of his time.
