				Vita Fugax : for cello / Marijn Simons
			
					
										Overige auteurs:
									
									
									Simons, Marijn
									(Componist)
								
							
							Toelichting:
						
						
						Vita Fugax means "fleeting life". 
The opening movement, Secret Societies, is a social commentary on behind-closed-doors politics and silly conspiracy theories. 
The second movement, Futurology, is based on Stanislaw Lem's novel The Futurological Congress. 
The third movement, Christian Extremism, is a statement against extremism (of any sort), which, unfortunately, is still too much a part of our present society. 
The final movement's title, A Fairy Story, comes from a quote by a man I admire, Stephen Hawking: "A belief that heaven or an afterlife awaits us is a fairy story for people afraid of death."
