"‘Caracolitos chicos" from Alberto Grau (*1937) ist a virtuoso composition for women’s choir belonging to a group of works that Grau wrote for ensembles who were looking for new ae sthetic proposals. The text of García Lorca that serves as a point of departure, is only a short selection of playful verses describing the natural and untamed character of a child that imitates a horse. This is why the composition combines different layers of polyrythmic textures in the singing parts of the choir with body percussion, which are fully interconnected and must be interpreted as a whole.The intention of the composer is that the piece turns into a festive and happier experience on stage.
