"Stars also played an important role in other works Stockhausen composed around this time. Musik in Bauch, for six percussionists and music boxes, was also inspired by a dream, and was premiered at an arts festival in Royan. A huge eagle-headed figure called Miron hung above the middle of the stage wearing a Mexican shirt, while the percussionists playing antique cymbals, glockenspiels and marimba entered the stag or were heard on the wings. Three of them moved stiffly towards Miron, encircling, prodding, and dancing around him, until at the sound of a tubular bell, they froze. The belly of Miron was cut open, and in succession the three pulled out a music box each, playing the melodies of Leo, Capricorn, and Aquarius. They accompanied the melodies on a little glockenspiel at Miron's feet, before departing one at a time until all that was left were the music boxes playing until they wound down. The zodiac melodies in this Aztec-Toltec mystery play (with its obvious suggestions of Quetzalcoatl, the plumed serpent), were added to make a complete set of twelve in 1975, where they became part of another cyclic astral work, Tierkreis; written for a melodic instrument and/or a chordal instrument, with other versions with text for six voices, and another for a chamber orchestra with clarinet, horn, bassoon, and strings."
