Stars & Constellations is an instrumental music project by Aureus Nova Solis.  It is part one of "The Immaterial Awakening". They are currently planning the project's 10th LP, tentatively titled Chapter X.

History[]

Stars & Constellations began October 2011 when Solis strived to create non-holiday wintry music they felt there was a lack of in the world. They wrote compelling and mysterious poetry to read along with the music, a tradition kept to this day. Although the project began as a four person group with a few friends in their high school years, Solis decided to keep their work a solo venture. On December 12th of the same year, they released the project's first album.

Over that New Years weekend, Solis started working on the project's sophomore album, but the first version they recorded wasn't where they wanted to take it sonically. They wrote the poetry for the new version and went in a bigger musical direction. In October 2012, it was finally released.

Solis has released nine albums to date, ranging in a variety of genres from Neo-Medieval, electronic-infused Chinese Folk, Trance, Drone, and Neo-classical electronic crossover. Each album since 2012 has taken place in a different constellation. The overall story follows "The Crystal Child" from his birth to late-teens in Chapter I: In Which Our Crystalline Child Travels The Confines of Isolation and meeting the various constellation "Guardians" to mature, experiencing wonders and emotions alike.

Solis also has projects the monikers The Silent Boy, Kaleidanoyse, and AQVARIVS.
