[i]The National Symphony Orchestra will debut the piece as part of a [URL=http://www.kennedy-center.org/calendar/event/NSPSF]pops concert[/URL] Friday night at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. [He] calls the 11-minute work "Voyage." It's a musical description of "what is going through your mind when you wake up on the morning of a launch, going out to the pad, being buckled in, waiting for launch, blasting off, weightlessness, reaching your destination, and coming home," says the longtime space buff. Giacchino calls this piece “a precursor to a longer piece I’m writing for next year,” the 50th anniversary of the July 1969 moon landing by Apollo 11, “what that meant to the world, and where we go from here.” It too is a joint commission by NASA and the National Symphony Orchestra.[/i]
