Michael Carson drops a hugely memorable single to gaze at the stars with, Aurora

Bringing is a sky-bound single that was first released over 11 years ago, Michael Carson carries us to an atmospheric phenomenon to lift our spirits higher with on Aurora.

With a Bachelor’s of Music Composition, Master’s of Music Composition, and Doctor of Musical Arts, Michael Carson is an experienced Fayetteville, Arkansas-based deep thinker who is known as a visionary to many as he looks at the world differently from most.

The piece, Aurora, was composed in an effort to express the uniquely beautiful and “other worldly” nature of the Northern Lights. The harmonic language of the piece is advanced; however, not at the expense of the lovely melodic content. The latter being somewhat impressionistic and very motivic, everything about the work is based on the opening phrases of the harp.” ~ Michael Carson

Performed with a galaxy-hopping style and packed with vibrance, this is a stunning array of brilliance from a sublime artist with style and class. This is the kind of single to turn on while camping or taking time to get away from screen time, and just let the spirit go into another universe.

Aurora from the massively skilful Michael Carson is a ray of light to transform all moods. There is excitement in droves here as an underground single that has been dug up from the archives to thrill us into looking deeper. More resonant into the stars above of course. Deeper into our spirits. Deeper within. To make us appreciate our beautiful cosmos.
