ETHER DOME
Richard Bone

08/99

"Between Light and Dark in the Glimmering Unknown
dwell the Twilight Shadows of the Etherdome"

** Sold Out **

"Visions come unbidden as consciousness drifts away....

Inspired by a visit to the operating rotunda (actually called the "Ether Dome," at Massachusetts General Hospital) where ether was first introduced to the medical community over 150 years ago, the music is meant to reflect moods that occur as consciousness slips away.
Not quite as dark as its predecessor The Spectral Ships, and incorporating a definite musicality and respect for melody, nonetheless Ether Dome relies heavily on atmosphere for its effect."
(M. Griffin)
