In this paper we interpret the elements of the fantasy and ballad principle in Satirova svirala [La flûte de Pan] (1945) for solo flute written by Petar Konjović (1883–1970) from the point of view of the author’s poetics and musical and non-musical analogies with Claude Debussy’s (1862–1918) composition Syrinx (1913). Aspects of the fantasy principle are equally manifested when considering Satirova svirala as a unique musical entity that musicalizes the myth of Pan’s flute, as well as in the context In this paper we interpret the elements of the fantasy and ballad principle in Satirova svirala [La flûte de Pan] (1945) for solo flute written by Petar Konjović (1883–1970) from the point of view of the author’s poetics and musical and non-musical analogies with Claude Debussy’s (1862–1918) composition Syrinx (1913).
