- Summary:
-
The American painter Mark Rothko was known for painting canvases that each explored one colour. This piece is a tone poem that uses the full symphony orchestra as a tone palette. It is an exploration of shifting perception to pure sound colour, what is known as 'klangfarbenmelodie'. The tone poem is a meditation with a continuous pedal note, passing between all the very low instruments - a deep vast rumble of the sea, the pedal note of red. --Publisher's note.
