1 - In the Beginning...

This section is the foundation of Genesis. Here we find the germinal impulse, which initiates the development of earthly creation that follows. It begins with a powerful statement indicating the purpose and course of all that will soon unfold. This is followed by a period of increasing tension which, when it reaches its zenith, is suddenly released to start the creative process. The creation itself starts as a state of momentary chaos, which gradually becomes ever more structured and orderly as we pass through the 10 sections of the composition.
