COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
Thousand Star, Flow Of Time's Arrow, Belle E'Poque 3012, The Visionary, Course Projection On Tactical, Enroute To Delta Pavonis, Nostalgia For Infinity NOTES:
Jonn Serrie introduces Thousand Star, which follows a similar direction he had taken with The Stargazer's Journey in that he presents an opportunity to embark on a sonic voyage into deep space. This time, instead of an Earth based view of observing space from a distance, Jonn invites the audience to take the voyage with him as it happens. The song titles and poem act as a guide as to where and how the voyage unfolds with timing and sound design elements emphasizing direction and place. The album is intended to play as if the listener were taking part in a science fiction novel, told with music and sound design instead of words and pages. The "Revelation Space" series by Alastair Reynolds was a constant companion during the creation of Thousand Star. |

COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
The Stargazer's Journey, Eye of The Beholder, Goldstone, Pan Galactic, The Stars; Like Dust, Radiant Dawn's Whisper NOTES:
"At the last instant before the Sun sets on a clear evening, a sharp-eyed observer might notice the bright speck of sunlight turn green. For most of the world, that "green flash" marks the end of day. But for a lover of the night sky, it signals the beginning of The Stargazer's Journey. Even William Hershel, who discovered the planet Uranus, knew that music has a lot in common with astronomy. It's been a great tradition that continues with Jonn Serrie's beautiful collection of cosmic musical poetry." - David Levy (world class astronomer) |

COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
Lookback, The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, Timelines, Distant Moment, Velvet, Century Seasons, The Ancient Of Days, Land Of Lyss, The Last Secret NOTES:
Midsummer Century provided the opportunity for Jonn to work with artist Michael Whelan. The cover art came from Michael's personal library of masterful sci-fi imagery. Midsummer Century is a far-flung romantic fairy tale concerning a mysterious connection between love, time, and technology. The album represents the conclusion of this epic fable. "Michael's exquisite image mirrored musical ideas I was working with at the time. It's amazing how the music and art blend so well together into one complete experience". - Jonn Serrie |

COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
Tingri, Where Lovers Walk, Remembrance, Iridani, Winter's Chapel, Tingri Maiden, Annie By The Sea NOTES:
His third album, Tingri, is a diversion from the themes of space and flight. Tingri is actually a small village in Tibet, about fifty miles from Mount Everest. "While in college I was a philosophy major, hence my interest in Tibetan culture. It seemed like such a fun musical world; I decided to give it my own interpretation." - Jonn Serrie |

COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
Flightpath, Sky Safari, Muroc, Outreach, Deep Starship, Glyder NOTES:
" I originally wanted to be a professional pilot, but was lead to pursue a musical career. I never lost my love of flight". Jonn knew he shouldn't attempt to replicate the unique feeling and intent of his first album, so he drew from a place of equal passion - aviation. The result is Flightpath, an intriguing mix of up-tempo and ambient themes, suggesting the motions and emotions of flying. Jonn is a former USAF search and rescue pilot with advanced instrument and commercial ratings. |

COMPOSITIONS INCLUDE:
Gentle The Night, Fantasy Passages, And The Stars Go With You, The Far River, Stratos NOTES:
"I was working on the Teacher in Space Project for NASA in 1986, and had prepared a lot of music specifically for this mission". The Challenger disaster affected Jonn deeply. He decided to use the music he had created to express his feelings musically, and the result became his first recording. In 1988 the album was used in the opening production of the Christa McAuliffe Planetarium in Concord, New Hampshire. Christa's parents were guests of honor that day and the music is dedicated to her memory." - Jonn Serrie |
