The five chords that shook my world
Description
The Five Chords That Shook My World (2020) was written for pianist
Nicolas Horvath’s Hommage à Glass project and it is dedicated to him.
It’s a fantasy meditation on the Train/Spaceship chords in Einstein,
that repeating five-chord progression (Fm – Db – A – B7 – E) about which
the composer has said that there’s something strange, because it never
fails to lift the audience to its feet.
