Spherical music

Euterpe had pondered for a long time about whether flute playing alone was the ultimate in musical expression. Some of the Muses went to the disco Northern Lights, because there was something which kribbling in them. It kribbled in both hearts, legs and feet, so they agreed to go out and dance.
At the disco Northern Lights was Euterpe deeply touched by a musician’s creativity. He played so beautifully that she rather than dancing sat quietly and listened as her heart was flowing, and she marveled at the unusual breathtaking sounds, this musician produced. His instrument wavy, so it was difficult to see what it was, he played on, and it triggered something very special in her.
Home again, she thought on the musical possibilities there was, and she decided to try them out. She had a plan, timed and organized so that there might come any good out of it, and now she knew what had to be tested: First, she would see if one could play the harp on the sunbeams, and if it went well, she would test the moon’s beams. They were probably more delicate than the sunbeams, but it could then be taken into account and to consideration.
Sunbeams proved suitable for harp playing, but the moon’s beams could not stay for the vulgar treatment, so Euterpe got a new idea. She saddled Pegasus and rode to the fairies hair salon, and bought a whole bunch of fairie hair. Back home she woven, and made an arch with it, a bow as reminiscent of those used for violin playing. The woven fairie hair was finer than spider silk, and the moon’s beams now played fine.
She asked Erato and Terpsichore, if they would help to form a trio so they could play at various suitable occasions. When she had presented them her research and proven techniques, they agreed, and it was then, the spherical music was founded. Already within three years had passed, they had reached the stars and was known throughout the universe as well as in some black holes deepest down. While they were on their highest. As background music they used the winter’s northern lights, because it was so sonorous, and of the summer northern lights they woven their musical costumes which they used each time they appeared.
They always said no to playing in the black holes, because it was too dangerous, even though they probably could do well to listen to their music there. But all their numbers could be podcasted, and it was really big enough for them, and thus not so bad.
Whenever they played together, was the universe completely silent, for there was something about their music which spurred to devout listening. And by listening to it in the right way, occurred a feeling of what impersonal universal love was.
