I just knew that this one would be my favourite. Lovely collection of music Bill.

That one haunting minor note is what makes this sizzler so red.
Great job Bill. Please pass me another marshmellow. [ Reply to This ]
cool concept Bill &mdash 05/16/08 - 09:46:26 PM
This is a terrific concept &mdash 05/17/08 - 11:51:20 PM
and now I need to go and listen to all the other colors! Terrific, evocative piece. Great buildup. Nicely done. Peace. [ Reply to This ]
What a cool &mdash 05/18/08 - 11:34:29 AM
musical concept. Red is my favorite color and the fire cracking is so dramatic with the score. [ Reply to This ]

...is a very special piece...I'll have to hear the rest of the colors, too. Thanks for the download, Bill.

Even a blind person would see "red" on this. Very interesting project. Where has your alter-ego been?

that you should hear red as something so soothing yet on the edge. Most people would hear red as violent like blood, or hot like passion.
As I listen again, I guess there is some passion beneath the color here though.
Thoughtful piece ... well done ... No wait a minute well done would not be red would it? Rare would be red ... Thoughtful piece well interpreted and performed ... that's what I mean. [ Reply to This ]

I went at this from a different angle. Rather than the psychological meanings of colors, I was considering first the energy level in each photon of a given wavelength.
The violet end of the visible spectrum has the highest energy photons. I used high frequency sounds, such as bells, as the primary sounds. As the pieces descend down the spectrum, the low end takes on more and more of the primary role in each piece. It's not perfect: I sacrificed that general plan due to musical considerations as each piece came into focus.
Red has the lowest frequency and least energetic photons.
