A Parable for End Times, Haralabos [Harry] Stafylakis (2018)for SATB choir and orchestra A Parable for End Times is a setting of an excerpt from Canadian author Steven Erikson’s novella “The Devil Delivered”. The story depicts a near-future Earth ravaged by nuclear fallout, depleted natural resources, and an ozone hole the size of the Great Plains. In this dystopia, a young boy’s painfully naive question – “what did I do wrong” – is met with a scathing diatribe on humanity’s complicity in its own planet’s destruction, resulting from a myopic preoccupation with ephemeral comforts and exploitative indulgence. This piece is my response to how timely and prescient Erikson’s words feel. —HS Instrumentation: 3(picc).2.3(bcl).2 / 4.3.3.1 / timp + 3perc / hp / pno(cel) / strings / choir (SATB) Orchestral performance parts are available via rental.
