Lights and Shades at an Exhibition - Free music by Francesco Zanellato
video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FYcvgnFhs1I
free audio download: www.jamendo.com/list/a120846
THE SOUNDTRACK
The music is inspired by “Shadows in the Mirror” a fractal art video by Lilia Morales y Mori.
The video is based on different “environments”, or pictures, separated by a repeated picture as an “intermezzo”.
So, the structural idea of the music consists of different brief musical pictures, like at an exhibition, separated by a “promenade”.
The structure and the title of the music is consciously inspired by Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition”, but music is entirely original.
Melodies are performed using an ethnic ensemble: Flute, Low Whistle, Pan Flute, Ethnic Drums, Drum Set, Triangle, Violin, Solo Female Voice, Female Choir.

LANDING ON VEGA - Free Music by Francesco Zanellato - The soundtrack of "Evolution: the future"
You can download the music for free at:
http://www.jamendo.com/en/list/a117122/landing-on-vega
The music is inspired by “Evolution: the future”, a book by Marco Santini and the relevant video by Lilia Morales y Mori. You can watch the video here:
THE SOUNDTRACK
The music consists of a simple monothematic piece, to be listened while watching at the video:

Ethereal beginning, harp glissando as a transition to the piano accompaniment.
Two snares ensemble parts, for “generation of Adamo” and “funeral rites” of Martin.
The chorus is the community.
Final mysterious part, with abrupt end, to create suspence: want more?
Read Marco Santini’s free books: “The Alpha Centaury Project” and “Evolution: the future”.
“Evolution: the future” is available for free download at:

THE MAKING OF “LANDING ON VEGA”
I got the idea for the title, when I received an e-mail from a collaegue of mine, with subject “Arrival on Vega”, so I came up with “Vega 31″, a mining offshore platform on a remote planet.
THE COVER
The cover of “Landing on Vega” is made with Blender, an open-source 3D animation software.
