Composed by Daniel Cueto. Contemporary. 94 pages. Daniel Cueto #3500547. Published by Daniel Cueto (A0.876565).DUE CANTI, for 25 flutes, draws inspiration mainly from Dante Aligheri´s well-known narrative poem "La Divina Comedia". The piece consists of two contrasting movements: "Inferno" and "Paradiso".
I´ve tried to paint with sounds some of the vivid images that appear in the work. "Inferno", a world of chaos and despair, is a vibrant cacophony consisting of an insistent, mechanical ostinato, dissonant counterpoints and frullato cries in the upper registers of all flutes.
"Paradiso", a place of order and sensual delight, features shiny open fifths in the medium-high register, a theme in long notes which is symmetrical in design (as to represent God-like perfection and balance), as well as long, lyrical solos for the first flute and the bass flute.
A secondary source of inspiration for the piece was the painting "The Garden of Earthly Delights" by the great Hieronymus Bosch.
