The Greek poet Homer wrote about Troy and the Trojan War - which probably took place in what is now Asia Minor - in his Iliad in the 8th century B.C. Nowadays, the term 'Trojan' generally refers to a malware program that is used to gain unauthorized access to computers. This use comes from the legendary Trojan Horse, which saw the turning poing in the battle between Greeks and Trojans through the cunning of Odysseus. Let us return to the beginning of the story: Paris, son of the king of Troy, is tasked by Zeus with judging the beauty of the three goddesses Aphrodite, Pallas Athena, and Hera. Aphrodite, the goddess of love, flatters Paris by promising him the most beautiful woman in the world. Soon afterwards, on a journey to Greece, Paris meets the beautiful Helen, who immediately falls in love with him. Since however she is the wife of Spartan king Menelaus, she eventually lets herself be kidnapped by Paris voluntarily. The Greeks then form a large army and go to war against Troy to retrieve Helen, leading to a ten-year siege of the city. The city is eventually conquered not through combat, however, but through Odysseus' cunning ploy. He has the idea of building an enormous wooden horse with warriors hidden inside. The horse is placed at the gates of the city. Thus, the Trojans are tricked into giving up the siege when, despite various warnings, they bring the horse into the city to dedicate it to the goddess Athena. At night, the soldiers climb out of the horse and open the gate for the Greek army. The troops storm the city and raze it to the ground. The royal family and all the Trojan warriors are killed - only Aeneas, the son of Aphrodite, escapes. Later, following many years' wanderings he and his acolytes will become known as the founders of the Roman people.

Comentarios del Espanol:
KAMALALAM II para piano a cuatro manos, lleva por titulo uno de los libros mas celebrados del magnifico escritor belga Marcel Moreau (16 abril 1933, Boussu en Belgica) a quien esta dedicada la obra, juntamente a Pilar Valero e Yves Robbe, los interpretes que la estrenaron en Boussu (Belgica). La obra se estructura en tres movimientos que llevan por titulo: Coric, Boires y Pokus. CORIC: es la palabra Circo al reves, variada. La musica tiene ritmos de Ragtime y polca asi como de musica que podria ser de un circo muy sui generis. El Circo al que se alude puede ser un circo real (influencia de Satie un autor que he dirigido bastante y del que he realizado arreglos de Sports et Divertessiments y de Parade, una de mis obras se llama Satieniana etc. Por otro lado, en la localidad donde trabajo se celebra el Festival de Pallasos y hay mucho movimiento circense que veo cada temporada mientras voy y vuelvo del trabajo a casa) pero tambien alude al circo humano, a esta desquiciada sociedad en la que todo es una especie de circo, una autentica muestra de monstruos mediaticos. BOIRES: En catalan BOIRES es NIEBLAS. Es una obra rara. La mano izquierda evoca la musica decimononica (romantica) mientras que la derecha realiza temas ajenos a este discurso de una manera algo absurda. ?Por que Boires? Pues porque las nieblas, las boires, aluden a una realidad de visibilidad enganosa. La niebla no nos permite ver la realidad. La realidad que no se ve la he imaginado habitada por espiritus. De hecho, pense en una sesion de espiritismo realizada en el siglo XIX (mano izq.....el romanticismo que evoca la epoca y la derecha con su discurso que en algun momento parece un baile lento, como si fuesen armoniosos fantasmas que danzan elegantemente en el aire).Ya se que es raro pero pensaba en esto......No se si habre conseguido mi proposito. POKUS: En eslovaco significa experimento (estudie en Bratislava la obra de JN Hummel becado por el ministerio de asuntos exteriores). La obra es un continuo pulsar ritmico, de gran agilidad, con notas repetidas y mucha simetria. En cierto modo se trata de un homenaje al virtuosismo pianistico biedermeier.
