Windrose

Windrose is a musical fairytale for children, a story about four well-known Mediterranean winds, as well as four musical instruments and timbres, and of a magical center, the center of a wind rose, where the children/listeners discover a contemporary music language and listen to the narration. Following the traces of the classical musical fairytale “Peter and the Wolf” bu Prokoviev, the composer Esthir Lemi creates a musical adventure exclusively for children, performed by young musicians, who timely decided to dive into the deep waters of contemporary music.
