4 Piezas Instrumentales

Description: For being the round world, who walks away in the East looking for new landscapes, after many trips and adventures he will return to the starting point from the West ... perhaps without wanting to or looking for it. By listening to these 4 instrumental pieces, you will think that they consist of an interpretation made for traditional music instruments. However, for me, the composer is nothing but a new experience in the field of technological music. In this case the experimentation consists of a… more

Acuerdor por Differencia

Description: Picture yourself travelling at ease on the train. As you look through the window, you notice the power cables, which run parallel to the tracks. As your eyes follow them, they seem to turn giving the impression of a volume that gently and continuously rotates as it changes shape. This flow seems to accelerate before being momentaneously interrupted by the posts that hold them at more or less regular distances; this is immediately followed by the previous soft change as you recapture the perspe… more

Alcoforado

Description: Alcoforado is a fuzzy, vaguely remembered portrait of a woman whose passion for passionate love letters will ensure her a place in history - as in the case of the original Alcoforado, a XVII century Portuguese nun who shared the same passion. Incidentally, this is all that is known about her but - one must admit - is sufficient to make one envious.

Anaconda

Description: "Anaconda" could be labelled as a "naturalistic" work. Conceptually, the piece relies on the imagery provoked by the sound, and on the immediacy of the sound world and the integration of the flute part in terms of sound texture and musical material. Broadly, this work can be divided in three parts: 1) The very beginning represents the location : jungle, unfamiliar, exotic, moist, exuberant and very importantly, claustrophobic ( this last is maintained throughout the piece). It is here that we… more
