Lux is essentially about light. Millennium's concept takes light from the primitive to futuristic. The first movement, 'Sun, Fire and Lightning' is about primitive forms of light. The music is very tribal and ritualistic and should reflect primitive man's early experiences with light, including using fire to create light.
'Aurora Borealis' (second movement) takes one to a more mystical and bewildering place. The source of the mysterious Northern Lights has perplexed man for years.
The third movement, is 'Incandescence': from a single white flame to a body glowing due to its high temperature. Millennium's interpretation of incandescence suggests the flickering and quietness of that single flame.
'Solar Power and Future Energy' (fourth movement) brings the audience into both the present and the future. Man harnesses the energy of light through collection by the use of solar panels. The sky is the limit in terms of the future of creating light and using light to benefit man.
