The title Ten
Orphic Vignettes, which
alludes to Orpheus, is a
conceptual metaphor that
represents the idea
behind this set of
pieces. Orpheus the
legendary figure from
Greek mythology was
venerated for being
endowed with superhuman
musical skills. He was a
poet and mystic whose
poems set out many
philosophical principles
and dogmas of Ancient
Greece. These pieces were
written in 2021 and some
of them are derived from
compositional sketches
from earlier years. The
subject matter of these
works are quite eclectic,
encompassing Joy, death,
aesthetic beauty,
nostalgia, the mystical
and the esoteric. They
are designed to be played
as solo pieces on their
own or in groups chosen
by the performer.Organ
