Additional info/contents	The first floating sounds in the heights of the "Atmosphère - Protective Shell" - the first part of the work - already reveal these 4 tones. A first majestic climax describes the beauty of the planet. Lively to lively wood passages simulate the movements of the air masses before a nosedive into the oceans leads us into the second part, the "Hydrosphère - the cradle of life". Surging dynamic movements dominate this part, dominated by a harp and subsequent flugelhorn solo. The journey takes us further to the seabed and finally into it, the third part "Lythosphère - Floating Rocks". A pulsating rhythm builds up increasing tension, while enormous masses of rock move inexorably towards each other, hooking together, piling up on top of each other. Elemental forces are expressed at the end of this part, until we finally dive into the liquid lava mantle below, the "Asthénosphère - Sea of Fire". But things are not any quieter here: hectic interjections and fast runs create the image of a seething mass that is constantly in motion and never comes to rest. The journey leads ever further into the hot interior until we finally reach the center of the planet at the radiant end of the work. The work ends again with the 4 familiar notes played by the vibraphone, when they disappear into nothingness.
