The Expanse | James Michael Stevens | By Rien

‪@JamesMichaelStevens‬ wrote this piece just a few days ago in a bold, out-of-this-world style. When I drove home tonight (Monday, January 13) I was amazed by a beautiful full moon. It inspired me to record this piece in the evening. I choose a -out-of-this-world registration for it. I hope you want to fly with me along the stars!

Really sounds great, Rien! Love the wide, grand, ambience of the organ. Thanks so much for playing.

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Thank you James! Some more and we can make a “space” audio album.

The acoustic the sample set of the Steinmeyer Organ at St Maria, Landau, speaks into certainly helps evoke a sense of 'The Expanse' being painted in this tone poem by JMS. A wonderful performance by you, Rien, of music that would be quite at home in any cinematic depiction of 'big space'! Bravo!

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Thanks dear Graham!

[@RalphLooij]

A space venture which I like very much. The moons was very clear last week indeed. No lanterns needed.
This really has a Hans Zimmer vibe.

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Thanks! I’m always intrigued what you can do with a handful of notes and some contrasting chords!

[@albertoguerzoni]

Very suggestive piece, thanks for the beautiful performance

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Thank you Alberto!

[@Flotenbass]

Nice ambient music!

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Thanks! It’s amazing what you can do with a handful of notes.

[@orgelhase]

The music and your interpretation really does fit to the Sci-Fi series!

[@RienSchalkwijk]

I couldn’t resist with this one. Hahaha. Thanks.

[@SecretsofOrganPlaying]

It's an interesting example how to create a piece using just a few minor chords.

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Agree! A minimalistic piece indeed.

[@remi-chapalain]

Beautiful Rien ! It sounds a bit like Interstellar soundtrack !

[@RienSchalkwijk]

It does! Thanks!

Bijzonder mystiek stuk. De visuele effecten op je muur passen er uitstekend bij.

[@RienSchalkwijk]

Dankjewel Nils!
