From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with Metope.
Metopes (opus 29) is a work for piano solo by the Polish composer Karol Szymanowski. It draws on Greek mythology, specifically the Odyssey of Homer, for its three movements "The Isle of the Sirens", "Calypso", and "Nausicaa". The work may have been inspired by the metopes of the temple at Selinunte.
