Product Details

Description

My concerto for three flutes, commissioned by and dedicated to the Trio d’Argent, is loosely inspired by the rituals of the Santeria that I took part in Havana, December 1992. In this magical-religious Afro-Caribbean cult, Elegua is the ruler of the paths and Changó the ruler of fire and war. ‘Rezo a Elegua’ unfolds as a song which floats across the landscape and whose alterations in tonal colour highlight the complex changes of mood. ‘Cantò a Changó’, a poetic invocation of Changó, attempts to capture the emotional outbursts, the trance-like atmosphere and the magic of the rituals of the Santeria.
