Product details

This work for guitar trio takes elements from the Australian Aboriginal Dreamtime story of Tiddalik, a Giant Frog. The story itself is simplified and fragmented by the titles of the five moments, with short introductory statements to be narrated by the perfomers.

Difficulty: Medium

Duration: 11 min.

Contents note:

I. Frog chorus: the great throat of Tiddalik becomes very dry -- II. A thirst that cannot be quenched: Tiddalik drinks all the water -- III. A dry and thirsty land:  the animals despair -- IV. Water dance: the animals take turns to dance for Tiddalik to amuse him -- V. The water returns: as Tiddalik shakes with laughter, the water pours out of his belly.

Dedicated to Ensemble Terra
