Description:
Stratoscape by Swiss composer Gauthier Dupertuis, is a very colorful and contrasting work for wind orchestra that describes the view of our planet from the stratosphere. It is a pictorial journey, but also metaphorical, as it is a distancing from our world.
The work is divided into five sections:
I Ignition! (Ignition of the engines!), II Broadness & The Big Blue, III Stars Shining from Down to Above , IV Destructive Forces , V One & Only Home.
Five contrasting movements, beginning with Ignition, in which Gauthier Dupertuis attempts to musically convey the majesty of our planet from within the atmosphere, and ending with One and Only Hope, as the title expresses a message of hope. In between, three movements depicting the vastness of our planet's landscapes (second movement), the fragility of our earth at night, only the stars shining (third movement). But also pure reality in the fourth movement, in which the composer expresses in music the damage we humans do to our planet.
"Stratoscape": a fantastic view of the planet Earth!
