Happy Birthday, Mr Darwin! by Michel Lysight


A new score by Michel Lysight has just been released: Happy Birthday, Mr Darwin! for 2 trumpets, horn and trombone, or for saxophone quartet.


A gorgeous musical illustration of the 'order out of chaos' mechanism.


While transforming and agglutinating, the short cells of the beginning of this quartet develop gradually from simple to complex, illustrating musically Charles Darwin’s ‘evolution theory’, as an homage to this great scientist, who was born 100 years ago.
