The title of Mike Oldfield's classical-influenced opus Music of the Spheres is a reference to the prolific and eclectic composer's feeling that all music should aim to represent the spiritual or otherworldly elements of life: something beyond the mundane and everyday. He accomplishes that through the hypnotic beauty of the gentler passages and the percussive drama of others, both of which characterize the multi-movement opening track, "Harbinger," which lives up to it's title as a preview of the overwhelming, ethereal joys to come. Recorded with a full orchestra (with Oldfield on guitar) and arranged and conducted by modern classical composer Karl Jenkins, Music of the Spheres is a rich, heartfelt collaboration that breaks new ground for both men.
