A stunning and original work for Orchestra and Electronics – rare is it to see and hear the intricate and elegant synthesis between man and machine. Sikora’s inventive vision is superbly executed here – a tone poem symphonic work filled with lyricism, exacting contrapuntal designs, and timbral brilliance. Sikora’s sensitive architecture of the orchestral instruments and electronic composite wove together with precision and beauty. This was one of the most exciting world premiere performances of a new work for large orchestra.
