Descripción de la:
The title of this work by Gauthier Dupertuis refers to the novel Lord of the Flies by William Golding, published in 1954.
Lord of the Flies is intended to be a small symphonic poem that describes various episodes of the book: the desperation of the children stranded on the island, the use of the unifying conch shell and symbol of democracy, the adventures and formation of the camp, and finally the cruelty of Jack's clan, which undeniably leads to chaos. The ending is mysterious and half-toned, imbued with both the relief of having been saved and a deep sadness associated with the tragic events.
All the main themes and elements developed in the work come from the idea of "D-E-F", which is revealed from the first bars. The orchestration should be geometrically more or less variable, and avoids the most important instrumental difficulties. However, the composer wanted to find as many colors as possible and not limit himself to too "simple" harmonies.
Lord of the Flies: a piece accessible to most brass bands.
