This piece started with the intention of fireworks. I was enjoying a little creativity with my nine year old niece. We wanted to do something colourful together and initially were listening to Vivaldi's four seasons. 
 
As I allowed myself to get into the music it progressed onto a extended orchestra version of Maurice Ravel, Bolero being played by London Symphony Orchestra Cond. Valery Gergiev.
 
I became quite engulfed by it and before I knew it, the sky began to light up as with an Aurora...and so these lights began to dance to the music of Bolero!
