The work tells the adventures of a choir of young children and teenagers stranded on a desert island after the crash of their plane, shot down in the midst of World War II. No adult having survived, the children are left to fend for themselves. It is a dystopia: the children will first try to organize a society according to a democratic system, represented by a conch which announces, when one blows into it, the holding of a meeting where everyone has the right to speak. But it is ultimately the savagery and brute force of the charismatic Jack clan that will overcome the established order. This novel therefore deals with order, disorder, but above all with human nature, which Golding considers to be profoundly dark.<\/span><\/p>\r\n                    <p><span style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\">My composition is intended to be a small symphonic poem describing different episodes of the book: the despair of the children stranded on the island, the use of the unifying conch and symbol of democracy, the adventures and the formation of the camp and finally the savagery of the clan of Jack which undeniably leads to chaos. The finale is mysterious and half-tone, imbued with both the relief of having been rescued, and a deep sadness linked to the tragic events.<\/span><\/p>\r\n                    <p><span style=\"color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\">This work was commissioned by the Swiss Wind Band Association (SBV) as part of the year 2023, dedicated to Swiss composers.<\/span><\/p>\r\n                  <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n              <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>pour ensemble flexible Po\u00e8me symphonique \u2022 2022 Difficult\u00e9 2.5 (facile) \u2022 07:50 \u2022 FC Music Publishing Cette oeuvre existe \u00e9galement en version Harmonie et&nbsp; Brass Band.
