Composer: Gala Flagello (1994-) Instrumentation (this edition): String Orchestra Originally for: Double Bass Ensemble Work: Droughts & Downpours (2024) Binding: Pages: 28 Description Droughts and Downpours , Gala Flagello (2024, arr. 2025) for string orchestra Droughts and Downpours(2024, arr. 2025) was commissioned by the Tanglewood Music Center and explores the concepts of scarcity and abundance through the sonic depiction of rainfall (or lack thereof). The ensemble evokes doubt, longing, hope, and joy through sound worlds of aridity, mist, drizzle, and deluge; harmonics and pizzicato braid with ostinati and percussive effects in search of "enough." As climate change has made droughts more frequent, longer, and more severe, how can we cherish and care for the world around us?
