Description

The Seven Angels of William Blake For Piano by Dmitri N. Smirnov is a piano cycle inspired by the prophetic books of William Blake. The work features eight movements, each representing a musical portrait of one of Blake's characters from his poem "Vala, or the Four Zoas". These characters are listed in a passage from Blake's poem, where they are described as being sent to guard Adam and later refusing their roles. The cycle explores the complex relationships between these figures, including Lucifer, Moloch, Elohim, Shaddai, Pahad, Jehovah, and Jesus. The piano cycle "The Seven Angels of William Blake" is a unique interpretation of Blake's work, offering a glimpse into the poet's vision of creation and the nature of divine beings.
