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

Across the Evening Sky

Description: "Across the Evening Sky" consists of sustained, slowly changing sonorities and pedal figures which gradually evolve across a variety of registers, densities and intensities. Formal cohesion is achieved via a process akin to isorhythm, wherein large-scale repetitions occur at varying rates, thus resulting in ever-changing juxtapositions of material. The composition was realized at the computer music studio of Northwestern University in the winter and spring of 1987, and received its premiere at … 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

Adagio

Description: Adagio is, as the title suggests, cast very much in the tradition of the late-Romantic symphonic slow movement, with its carefully measured pacing combined with a dramatic use of weight and drive. In particular, Adagio has a special relationship with the slow movements of Mahler's symphonies, this relationship being present at different levels and to different degrees at various points in the piece, ranging from the use of generally expressive gestures to explicit 'quotations' (particularly fro… 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. Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz (also known as Witkacy), a Polish painter, writer and philosopher, was a man of unusual energy which he expended on … more
