Jonn Serrie Ascendant Destiny
In my long music career, Space and Meditation have always been the seeds of my inspiration. Ascendant Destiny portrays the textured motions of time and distance that merge into visionary experiences. I spend much time in deep meditation and contemplation when creating my music, and with this, my latest work, I have tried to create a journey through both time and space. I want the listener to experience a unique feeling of immersion amongst the wonders of the universe. I invite you to take the journey with me.

Thousand Star Review - Star's End

2/5/2009

John Serrie Thousand Star
Fans of Spacemusic have been in the thrall of Jonn Serrie's music for over 25 years. His work has always been a form of exploration, of rocketing into the unknown alone - headed for those unmarked areas on the star chart. The CD Thousand Star is a captivating, often glorious listening experience. Fully and effectively imagined, this album opens up a warm and beautiful space then moves slowly through it, taking time to take in the grandeur. Rounded string pads extend above the dramatic rumbling of stardrive engines - pushing the listener further towards the center of this sonic universe. A solar wind gently rushes past, stirring up metallic glitter along its way as analogue synthesizers breathe light filled ethereal tones. With its celestial choirs, growling pads and delicate atmospheres, the seven compositions on Thousand Star contain a fair amount of cosmic drama. In a few areas the sequencers kick in and the listener is treated to a delightful acceleration in energy - but not enough to disturb the contemplative and expansive nature of this album. Serrie's music may sound like it belongs among the stars, yet we are always discovering the best parts of his works within ourselves. - Chuck Van Zyi c/o Star's End

Epiphany
Some people impart a spiritual component to their enjoyment of music. For Jonn Serrie, this component is a well-established fact. Serrie, who many consider to be the premier composer of planetarium music, is also the producer of albums reflecting this underlying spiritual nature. 

Ephiphany, subtitled "Meditations on Sacred Hymns" is Serrie's third album of overtly spiritual-themed music, the first two being Christmas/holiday releases, Upon a Midnight Clear (1997) and Yuletides (2002). However, with the possible exception of the Johann Sebastian Bach piece, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, it is not likely that the cuts on this album have been heard on more traditional holiday offerings.

Two of the cuts, in fact, are modern-day pieces: O Magnum Mysterium, which is a 1995 work by Morton Lauridsen, and Serrie's own composition, Light Of Thy Countenance. The other pieces are all infused with Serrie's signature "breathy" synthesizers and long, spacy phrases. Amazing Grace in Serrie's hands becomes four minutes of deep, resonant bass notes intertwined with tinkling bells and whispered choral passages. It is unmistakably Amazing Grace, but it is so languid that it is simply transformed by Serrie's touch.
​
Nearer My God To Thee features waves breaking against the shore in the intro, cascading into a light, but still fluid, lilting paeon. The remainder of the album (ten tracks in all) are typical Serrie. It has been said that Serrie's strength lies in his space music rather than in his attempts at pop. With Epiphany, Serrie manages to blend the two. I confess that And the Stars Go With You remains one of my all-time favorite space music albums (followed closely by Plantary Chronicles, volumes I & II), but I think Serrie's attempts to redefine himself outside the space music genre bear some consideration. Epiphany is a fine example of crossing boundaries as only someone with the talent and taste of Jonn Serrie could do.
