Cloud Atlas is written in 2008 for the production Cloud Atlas – together with pieces from five other composers \u2013 inspired by the novel of David Mitchell, who wrote about this piece: \u201cEisenga\u2019s composition is beautiful, It is joyous, transcendent, and makes me homesick for a place I\u2019ve never been\u201d.<\/p>\n
Les Chants Estivaux (The Summer Songs) is a quadraphonic composition for four pianos. During the Dutch premiere in 2009 the audience could walk around in a special installation, build by O+A Architects. The special character of the piece fits perfect to a setting that was common tot the Minimal Music Performances in the 1980s. Les Chants Estivaux is music for everlasting summers.\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8<\/p>\n
Theme I is one of the earliest pieces Douwe Eisenga wrote. The music is exemplary for all his later work: steady repeated patterns, combined with lyrical melodies.<\/p>\n
City Lines was written in 2006 and was composed and inspired by hearing Tubular Bells again after may years and Simeon ten Holt\u2019s Horizon. The result was this enchanting music, based on a Dutch Folk Tune, evolving into a lovely, pianistic written piece of music.\u00e2\u20ac\u00a8<\/p>\n
Growing Worm was written for the new-blues-project from Dutch pianist Marcel Worms. To be honest, the music contains no blues at all.<\/p>\n
