Parable is inspired by the parabolic arches in the hallways of
Gaud
í's Colegio Teresiano (1888-1889).
The Greek word  παραβολή  means analogy, application, comparison.
A parable is a simple story from which a moral lesson can be drawn.
With my composition for two flutes I try to express this simple beauty and quiet resonance.
