The Polar Vortex is the mass of extremely cold air situated over each of the earth's poles. Occasionally the vortex slips away from the polar region bringing unusually cold air to areas away from the pole. Polar Vortex is a depiction of a winter storm inspired by the poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Snow-Storm. It is a rhapsodic piece with many contrasting moments, styles, tempos, and colors of sound. A sophisticated new work from composer Gene Milford.

Maelstrom is a term synonymous with a whirlpool: a swirling, tumultuous vortex that engulfs everything around it. This exciting piece starts with a treacherous storm motif that acts as the undercurrent as quotes from famous water-themed compositions are heard. Some shifting is required in first violin, cello, and bass, and all parts include accidentals and dramatic dynamic changes. Students will learn the flowing theme from Smetana's Die Moldau, explore the haunting Aquarium movement from Saint-Saens's Carnival of the Animals, and bow along to a traditional Irish Sea Chanty, as melodies overlap in this musical storm. Developing players will refine articulation skills, explore a variety of rhythms in 6/8, and expand their chromatic and dynamic horizons in the familiar key of E minor.

Faster and easier Cable-free DJing without sound delays is now possible with the WAVE-EIGHT thanks to SonicLink. This new ultra-low-latency technology wirelessly transmits audio much faster than a Bluetooth connection so only a fraction of a second passes between pressing play on the decks and hearing the track through the speakers, which lets you mix without missing a beat. Take the included transmitter out of its storage compartment on the WAVE-EIGHT and connect it to your DJ gear, and you can instantly create a wireless connection, enabling you to throw a DJ party anywhere you want. And if you combine the WAVE-EIGHT with the new OMNIS-DUO portable all-in-one DJ system, which features battery power, you can play cable-free for total freedom. Professional sound with effortless setup With a highly efficient Class D amplifier, a newly designed 8-inch driver, and a Vortex Bass Accelerator which delivers clear and powerful bass, the WAVE-EIGHT will bring the vibes and the punch to your party's sound, even in outdoor settings. To cover larger events and spaces, you can easily add more units to your setup with the SonicLink connection: e.g., using 2 speakers in stereo for an expansive experience, or with a third added as a dedicated subwoofer for a club-like heavy bass sound. There are even several modes you can change between with a single switch to create the type of sound you need, including Mono, Stereo, and Subwoofer mode. Battery power and waterproof design for outdoor events A full battery charge gives you 8 hours of music on the WAVE-EIGHT so you can keep the tunes going throughout the evening and night. The unit is also waterproof, with an IPX4 rating, so it's ideal for using outdoors. And, if you need to charge your phone or another device, you can plug it into the USB Type-C port. Find party venues wherever you go The extendable handle, casters, and additional grab handles make it easy to carry the WAVE-EIGHT to any location on your own. There's a pole socket built-in, too, so you can mount the speaker on a stand for extra height, making it ideal for use in a variety of locations.

Programme note

Morpheus in the Greek mythology is the most powerful of the Oneroi, the gods of dreams. He is the one who sends us our dreams and he may appear to us within the dreams in disguise.

Analogous to the logic of dreams, in Morpheus everything is interwoven, as chains of associations appear to logically lead us from one line of thought to another. Everything seems strangelyfamiliar. But the logic is treacherous and we already feel, it may only be valid within the dream. Nothing that appears similar is actually ever really the same.

Half awakening, we struggle to hold on to a vanishing world we felt we were on the verge of understanding, but which we already know will eventually escape us when we fully awake.

Everything remains a mystery until the end.

The seven movements/dreamscapes are:

1. Vortex
2. Trees and Walls
3. Escher (Toccata)
4. Crystal
5. Into the Cloud
6. Non-Euclid
7. Arctica
