This is a real one-off. A fully choral symphony depicting seven moons of our solar system... It succeeds because of (Falkenberg's) skills as a a very experienced composer of film music and the extraordinary quality of the performance...

Review Choir & Organ Magazine Dec 2022

This is a captivating work, an exciting and emotional journey in tonal language, in which the author aspires to make her music serves as a reflection on who we are and where we are..

this symphony starts to shed light on that fact”

"Awe and wonder.
Two words that come to mind when I think about the spaceflight perspective. These two words immediately came to mind when I first, and every time, I listened to the music of The MOONS.
A powerful composition that will transport you through
space and bring you back to Earth!"
ISS Astronaut Nicole Stott
"Through the power of music, I wanted to create an inspiring work of art that
resonated with as many people as possible on the planet, but also deliver
a hopeful and uplifting message that is relevant to the plight of our world today.”
By combining artistic disciplines to produce works of great magnitude,
THE MOONS SYMPHONY is a result of collaborations with some of the
greatest scientific minds from lead space missions from
NASA, ESA, and world-class Space artists.
This production offers a unique visual and musical experience that
celebrates the mergence of music and science to
dramatize past, present and future moon explorations and provides a
new perspective of our OWN planet Earth"
AMANDA LEE FALKENBERG
Composer and Creator of THE MOONS SYMPHONY
"Working with and combining the enlightened experiences of astronauts with a musical tour and celebration of our galaxy,
we hope to recognize and celebrate EARTHRISE around the world, beginning with a WORLD premiere of,
THE MOONS SYMPHONY
with its planetary message to fill concert halls, outdoor stadiums and planetariums all across the World"
