Stellar Collections 2

The ultimate archive deep dive!

In this 2019 release, Mark presents 30 compositions from his wide-ranging planetarium soundtrack work over the past four decades. The suites and pieces featured here create an aural journey through space and time, from human prehistory to futuristic sagas of space exploration.

Avid Geodesium fans may recognize some familiar themes among the works comprising this thought-provoking retrospective album. Yet none have been heard outside of the planetarium show context for which they were created.

Both the up-tempo star flights as well as the floating journeys into deep space nebulosities that are the hallmarks of the Geodesium style are represented in this 71-minute, must-have disc!

The professionally-replicated CD-R is provided in a poly-wrapped jewel case; with full-color cover, tray card and disc labeling.
