Cooman: Flax-Golden Tales
$32.99
“Flax-Golden Tales” (2013) is a work for storyteller and chamber orchestra with a text by the author Erin Morgenstern. Each of the five movements is based on a different brief story of only ten sentences and explores a different mood and tone. Besides being reactions and complements to the stories, the movements also pursue their own musical identity, each being cast in a separate form: ricercare; rondo; chaconne; scherzo; aria and chorale. The goal is an organic and equal synthesis of story and music, in which each adds an additional dimension to the other.
