Entia Imaginaria II, from the Latin imaginary beings 2 is a subject that fascinates me, especially after reading Jorge Luis Borges's Book of Imaginary Beings. I decided to dedicate some of my compositions to this issue. This is the second composition with that title.
This three movements composition include:
i. Basiliscus (Basilisk) - Legendary reptile reputed to be king of serpents and said to have the power to cause death with a single glance;
ii. Unicornis (Unicorn) - Legendary animal that resembles a white horse with a spiraling horn projecting from its forehead. Commonly described as an extremely wild woodland creature, a symbol of purity and grace, which could only be captured by a virgin;
iii. Centaurus (Cenaturo) - Member of a composite race of creatures, part human and part horse.
This work was requested to be premiered by the project XL with Telmo Marques (piano) e Sérgio Carolino (Tuba). Was composed between January and March 2012.
