Description:
Pele, ("She who shapes the sacred land") is the Hawaiian goddess of fire and volcanoes. Small towns and entire forests have been wiped out by Pele’s passionate, unpredictable, and volatile temper. This edition attempts to recreate the June 7, 2023 eruption of the volcano, Kīlauea, creating a spectacle that intertwined both beauty and fear. If the traditional ipu heke island drum isn’t available use any percussion instrument capable of producing two distinct sounds.
The part for ipu heke island drum is available for download, D-11002INST. This polychordal original work is also available for 3 octaves ensembles, D-11001.
