A Cluster Galaxy discovered by William Herschel
The music: (1.) theme and variations for electric violin, harp, and fretless bass and (2.) fugue for electric violin, harp, and fretless bass.
The musical theme that I used in my original compositions comes from the Third Movement of William Herschel's Oboe Concerto No. 2 in C.
