SKU: A0.507426
Composed by Heather Cattanach. 20th Century,Baroque,Contemporary,Instructional. Score. 3 pages. Heather Cattanach #507426. Published by Heather Cattanach (A0.507426).
Ophiuchus is known as the healer and is based on Ascelpius, son of Apollo. He holds the head and tail of the constellation Serpens, and in some illustrations the snake is wrapped around his waist. This gives us the symbol physicians use today. Ascelpius was such a successful healer, he even brought people back from the dead. He learned his healing arts from Chiron (constellation Centaurus), but learned the resurrection trick by watching a snake place a particular herb upon the body of a dead snake which miraculously returned to life. Ascelpius used the same herb on people. Hades worried that his realm would suffer loss of souls because of the healing power of Ascelpius, so Zeus killed him and placed him in the sky as a constellation. This piece was written in the same key as Serpens, Phrygian Major. Contrapuntal textures dominate this Late Intermediate Piano Solo from “88 Constellations” a collection by Heather Cattanach featuring one piece of piano music for each of the 88 constellations (to match the number of keys on a standard piano). Performance Time 1 minute. 2 pages. (General Instructional, Modern, Modal, 21st Century, Repertoire, Recital).
