The Fall of Phaethon

from Metamorphoses by Adam Haws

/

about

Phaethon, son of Apollo, asks his reluctant father to allow him to man his sun chariot. Apollo does and everything goes terribly wrong. This piece opens with a solar chord from which a beat emerges constructed out of horse gallops. Fire emerges to scorch the earth. Jupiter sends his lightning strikes and Phaethon’s fall proper begins, evoked by descending Shepard’s tones.
