Pandemonium : Symphonic Fantasy for large orchestra / Nestor Taylor

(Componist)
Toelichting:
Pandemonium – Πανδαιμόνιο: wild and noisy disorder or confusion; uproar. This is the dictionary’s definition for this noun. More importantly perhaps, ‘pandemonium’ tells you it’s alright to be wild, to be crazy, to get out there and tear up the world. Have a course of action? Disrupt it. Randomly decide that purple and neon green are perfectly complimentary colors? Wear them!
A similarly open-ended esthetic approach was adopted when writing my Symphonic Fantasy for large orchestra under the same title. Pandemonium presents a fusion of conflicting styles, embracing different historical periods that curiously enough, are able to coexist in a new, more pluralistic time-order, with no boundaries. Formally, there is very little repetition allowing music ideas to be in a state of constant flux, proliferating and reorganizing themselves in unexpected ways. Pandemonium is dedicated with gratitude to Myron Michailidis and the Erfurt Philharmonic orchestra.
