The composition „And The Moon Be Still As Bright“ uses a recitation of
G.G. Byron’s poem „So, we’ll go no more a roving“ performed by an
unknown performer.

A space-ambient neoclassical album with essential attributes of the
author’s characteristic integrated musical concept. The work follows the
literary model not only thematically, but also in the titles of the
compositions and the sequence of selected chapters. The specific
extraterrestrial nature of the musical expression is, both in terms of
instrumentation, sound and melodic-harmonic, the result of the author’s
introspectively authentic rendition of the personal experience of the
atmosphere and lyricism of the book fiction, including the use of his
own
imaginary Martian language.
