Program Notes
Dragón Elliot is a cartoon that appeared on the cinema in the19 80s. This work has nothing to do with the history of film. This good-natured character of green colour and with pink wings inspired the composer to convey sensations through this symphonic poem such as the mystery of the shadows and prejudices between good and evil. Fantasy and reality together invite us to reflect on these feelings and explore where is its turning point.
This work was commissioned by the Union Musical de Godelleta for the Certamen Internacional de Bandas de Música "Ciudad de Valencia" 2011 - 1st Section, in which they won the first prize.
- Program Note by World Association of Symphonic Bands and Ensembles (WASBE)
