| Publisher Description: Druj Aeterni is a large chamber ensemble piece that seeks to unify two of my musical identities: Composer and Bassist. Three of my intellectual pursuits and interests-ancient mythology, cosmology, and mathematics-inspired me to compose this piece. The title of the piece uses Latin and the language of the Avesta, the holy book of Zoroastrianism, and comments upon a philosophical perspective based in string theory. I abstract the cosmological implications of string theory, apply them to the terminology and theology of Zoroastrianism, and then structure the composition in consideration of a possible reconciliation. |
