Hooked on the wonders of the cosmos as a youngster, who saw
Sputnik tracking across the night sky, Jonn Serrie has become
one of the foremost composers of Spacemusic. Ranging from
classic planetarium-style deep-space excursions to elegant and
romantic melodic compositions, Serrie's many recordings have
been among the most popular spacemusic releases.
Serrie's early releases grew out of his work as composer for
planetarium shows. And the Stars Go With You remains a
beloved classic of spacemusic, as does his Planetary
Chronicles series. Among Jonn Serrie's recent album releases
are the lyrical and charismatic Lumia Nights, the warm,
shimmering and curvaceous The Stargazer's Journey and his
latest, Epiphany, which bridges the gap between spacemusic
and sacred hymns.
An avid live performer, Serrie has taken part in the EMMA and
KLEM Dag Festivals, the Summer Solstice Spacemusic
Spectacular in 2002 and the Gatherings Concert Series in 2000.
2005 finds him performing at Alfa Centauri in Holland as well as
returning to Philadelphia and The Gatherings for a solo show on
Saturday 14 May 2005.
Following the concert at The Gatherings, Jonn Serrie will transfer
himself and his music making equipment over to STAR'S END
Ambient Radio for a live in-studio radio performance of all new
original material.
Tune in to STAR'S END this weekend for the live radio concert
