''The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra, Volume Two'' is a 1965 recording by the jazz musician Sun Ra and his Solar Arkestra. Where ''''Volume One'''' of the ''Heliocentric Worlds'' series had predominantly featured short abstract pieces, ''Volume Two'' features longer pieces performed by a smaller group, making it closer in spirit to the contemporaneous ''The Magic City'', released on Ra's own Saturn label. The record has been widely bootlegged, some versions of which were retitled ''The Sun Myth''.〔 The album was re-released on CD by ZYX-Music (ESP 1017-2) in the 1990s. ==The songs== "The Sun Myth" is constructed around the intertwining of Ronnie Boykins's bowed bass and Ra's electronic keyboard. These predominantly low sounds contrast sharply with the interlude commentaries from the other Arkestra members. A rare alternative version – also on ESP, and with the same catalogue number – overlays African singing at the start and finish of the piece.〔(R Campbell's Sun Ra discography )〕 "A House of Beauty" is a feature for piccolo, keyboards and bowed bass, which transforms into a piano and plucked bass duet. "Cosmic Chaos" is an example of the apparently free but actually conducted blowing for which the Arkestra would become known over the following decades. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Heliocentric Worlds of Sun Ra, Volume Two」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
