Chamberlain, N :: Orion's Belt
Chamberlain, N
Nicole Chamberlain s Orion's Belt was commissioned by Areon Flutes as a major concert work for flute trio. The namesake of Areon Flutes is a combination of Orion and aria which led to the inspiration of this trio for Areon Flutes' 10th anniversary. Orion's Belt is a suite of three dances based on the stars found on the belt of the constellation Orion.
Each movement is named after a star. The first movement is named after the brightest star, Mintaka, and is based around the foot strikes found in flamenco called zapateo. The second movement is Alnilam, translated into string of pearls, illustrated as a Sarabande. The final movement is named for the star Alnitak, actually made up of three stars, and this movement is a Troika, a dance with three dance partners.
Instrumentation: Flute I - C flute and piccolo. Flute II - C flute and alto flute. Flute III - C flute and bass flute.
