THE SEDUCTION OF EUROPA (2017)
by Gio Janiashvili.
For flute, fixed and live electronics
Duration: 44' 00
The title of the work is borrowed from the Greek myth The Seduction of Europa. However, this musical work does not aim to illustrate the story of the god Zeus transforming himself into a white bull, seducing the Phoenician King Agenor's daughter Europa, and abducting her to Crete. The title plays the part of a reference point - opening a fictional dimension to the musical work to be perceived and interpreted individually by each audience member.
