This sound installation explored a creative dialogue between fragments of piano music and dramatic text, inviting the audience into a ‘listening oasis’ on the open terrace of the Blackrock Castle . The possibility to  experience space and sound in a different way is explored. 

Some notes: a sequence of piano sounds first played in Vienna over 200 years ago. 

Other notes: observations spoken on stage in London 400 years ago.

As part of this very special event, the Blackrock Castle Observatory encoded and beamed the sound file to a distant exoplanet and its parent star. The transmission will take many years to reach its destination. 

The show was featured again as part of the MTU Space Week in October 2023 in Contemplative Garden in Nano Nagle Place.
