The Music of the Spheres

Musica Universalis, or the Music of the Spheres, is an ancient philosophical concept dating back to Pythagoras which holds that there is a divine harmony in the universe that causes celestial bodies to move in proportions equivalent to pure musical intervals.

Carmen of the Spheres” is Greg Fox’s modern attempt to make audible that harmony. It has links to download the music, and this link describes how he translated light into musical forms.
