Métopes [SEP] instrumentation
Métopes
Métopes, Op. 29, is a work for piano solo by the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski, completed in 1915. It is a cycle of three miniature tone poems drawing on Greek mythology.
Each of the three movements features a female character encountered by Odysseus on his homeward voyage. The movements are:
- "The Isle of the Sirens"
- "Calypso"
- "Nausicaa"
The work may have been inspired by the metopes of the temple at Selinunte.
