This work was commissioned by Riga Youth Choir, who gavethe first performance in Riga on 3rd July 2008. Based on a poem by Frithjof Schuon. The composer writes Frithjof Schuon's poem The Eternal Sun speaks of our earthly sun as a reflection of the Divine Sun which no earthly eye can see, and the music reflects this in its mirror images. The opening music for the main choir should glow with magnificence and splendour, representing the unattainability of the Heavenly Sun, but the later passages, especially the music for the distant semi-chorus, should be more nostalgic and haunting.

Prevod

To delo je naročila Riga mladinskega pevskega zbora, ki gavethe prvo predstavo v Rigi 3. julij 2008. Temelji na pesmi Frithjof Schuon. Skladatelj piše pesem Frithjof Schuon je Eternal ne govori o našem zemeljskem ne kot odsev Božanskega Sonca, ki ne morejo zemeljsko oko in glasba odraža to v njegovih zrcalnih podob. Glasba odprtina za glavni zbor moral svetijo z veličastnost in sijaj, ki predstavlja unattainability nebeškega sonca, toda poznejša prehodi, predvsem glasbo za daljni semi-refren, bi morala biti bolj nostalgično in tesnobna.
