Gravitational Music. On My Collaboration with Hèctor Parra

Since the late 1950s a growing number of composers have engaged with scientific research and have tried to incorporate their understanding of various models and theories into their musical works. Among them, Hèctor Parra (b. 1976) has been particularly impressed by recent developments in gravitational physics and astrophysics, namely the part of astronomy dealing with gravity rather than light. Black holes, gravitational waves, cosmology, or quantum gravity models belong to such fields of intensive research, bringing surprising new concepts such as the coarse-graining of space–time, the multiverse or the holographic principle. In this framework, we have collaborated on the conception of a large piece for ensemble, orchestra and live electronics, which tries to transpose gravitational phenomena into a new form of contemporary music.
