Wake up!
The sun rises, and the dew-covered flowers sparkle in the morning light. Butterflies, bees, bugs zip about as the garden awakens. Colors and sounds abound.
"Morning" is the first movement of my orchestral composition, "Secrets of a Summer Garden" (the Toluca Concerto). Inspired by Aaron Copland and Ottorino Respighi.

Chadwick and the Night Sky
“Arcturus, Guardian Of The Bear” is a quintet (string quartet and piano) in nine parts based on the Greek mythological story of Zeus, Arcas, and Callisto.
This video is for Part One. You can listen to the complete work on Spotify, Apple Music, and all the major music streaming services. Here are the links.

The music was inspired by “The Planets” by Gustav Holst.
I used the Spitfire Audio Labs BBC Symphony Orchestra sample library. The animation was done using Blender.
Part One - Zeus Seduces Callisto
Zeus seduces Callisto, a nymph and follower of the goddess Artemis. Callisto becomes pregnant.
Part Two - Callisto Gives Birth To Arcas
When Callisto’s pregnancy is discovered, she is banished from Artemis’ group. She gives birth to a boy, Arcas (Arcturus).
Part Three - Hera Turns Callisto Into A Bear
Zeus’ wife, Hera, learns of the seduction and birth of Arcas. Hera is not a forgiving god or wife and out of anger she turns Callisto into a bear. She searches for Arca with similar bad intentions.
Part Four - Zeus Hides Arcas From Hera
In order to protect his son from Hera, Zeus hides Arcas in the forest. Arcas becomes an excellent hunter and eventually a king. He doesn’t know that his mother, Callisto, has been turned into a bear.
Part Five - Arcas Hunts In The Forest
Arcas is hunting in the forest with his bow and arrow.
Part Six - Callisto Approaches Arcas
Calisto is in the same forest. She sees Arcas. She is overjoyed to see her son. She does not know that Arcas is unaware that she has been turned into a bear and she doesn’t know that Arcas does not recognize her.
Part Seven - Arcas Is About To Kill Callisto
Arcas sees a bear approaching. He doesn’t know it’s his mother. He readies his bow, pulls back the arrow, and is about to kill the bear.
Part Eight - Zeus Intervenes And Turns Arcas And Callisto Into Constellations
At the last second Zeus sees what is happening. To prevent Arcas from inadvertently killing Callisto, Zeus turns both of them into constellations.
Part Nine - Arcas And Callisto In The Night Sky
Arcas, as the constellation Boötes (Greek for “guardian of the bear”), and Callisto, as the constellation Ursa Major, light up the night sky. Boötes to the left of Ursa Major protecting the bear.
