Kosmoz 2025
KOSMOZ was born from a fascination with the intimate bond between the sky and the human being. Since Antiquity, the zodiac has
offered a symbolic map
through which humanity has sought to understand not only the rhythms of the cosmos, but also the character traits that shape
each personality. In this work, I wanted to give musical form to this circular journey — to translate the twelve signs into sonic colors,
into energies and human behaviors, while preserving a continuity that suggests an infinite orbit.
The work opens with a prologue titled Constellations. This introduction does not represent a particular sign, but the vast night sky
where both the zodiacal figures and the human archetypes associated with them take shape. It is a musical prelude that invites the
listener to lift their eyes to the universe while turning inward, to feel the immensity of the astral world and its resonance in human
nature. Ethereal textures and shifting harmonies create a sense of suspension, as if the stars and human qualities were gradually
emerging from the darkness. Constellations establishes this climate of wonder and introspection necessary before the cycle begins
its journey through the twelve signs.
The suite is conceived as a circle. Each sign of the zodiac bears within it a cosmic energy and a psychological force, and the musical
section that corresponds to it translates these two dimensions by binding them closely: the celestial part and the human part.
Between them, four astronomical thresholds — the spring equinox, the summer solstice, the autumn equinox, and the winter
solstice — serve as transitions, marking the universal passages that affect both the movement of the stars and the inner evolution of
beings. These moments are like gates between sky and soul, offering instants of reflection, transformation, or release before the
cycle continues its journey into the infinite.
