Flush

Description: Disregard for the welfare of all aspects of the environment stem from the negative attitudes about life that prevail in our century. Champions of bloated Western consumerism are products of an age that has framed and glorified these negative attitudes in popular existentialist philosophies such as the "sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll" ethic - philosophies that serve to vindicate a short-sighted, self-centered, hedonistic indulgence in life. Caring, conscientious, forward-looking attitudes are frow… more

Lunar New Year

Description: The term "lunar" refers to: taking on or relating to the moon. We all conjure (up) different images when we think of the moon. The moon has been described in literature in many ways, some examples are "the landscape of a great glacier" (John Hunt's Conception) and "shadows on the sand" (Kathleen Raine). Although men have walked on the moon and undoubtedly discovered many things, I often wonder what unreported mysteries it holds. The vast black blanket of space sometimes robs our view of the st… more

Diálogo con mi Anciano

Description: I composed this work during 1988/89 at the L.I.P.M in Buenos Aires. The electroacoustic material was mainly generated and processed with an ARP 2600 synthesizer and other analogues devices, that's why its title. The guitar part -five little pieces- belongs to a largest piece for guitar alone (Dobles A, 1988). The formal organisation keeps the articulation in five parts but, four interludes and a finale -with only electronics sounds- were intercalated and superposed, producing different kinds of… more

His Master's Voice

Description: This work is in a phrase from "Doktor Faustus" by Thomas Mann. This phrase ("in art all recently arrived strives towards an unpublished form") has been recorded with the voice of the composer himself (hence his title) in a sampler to, then separate the phonemes and transform them (through digital filters, generators of envelope, loops, etc.) in musical sounds in which, finally the voice is not recognized. The phrase, divided into three inverted parts, is what shapes the work. In each part only … more

Memories of the Universe

Description: Eternity, which can be perceived at every moment, divine capacity embracing everything. I had set my foot in the most basic realms of human existence, on a journey to search for the true significance of living. During my journey, I had always felt in touch with something divine.

Furies and Voices

Description: Furies and Voices comprises three movements, entitled Prelude, Scherzo, and Song each lasting about three minutes. It owes its title to the progression from an anonymous, and at times furious, sound stream (highly demanding of some speaker systems) to the intimation of human song, intoned in counterpoint with relentlessly moving sound masses. The "human" sound is derived by way of digital sampling of a trombone sound from an earlier composition, In Memory. A description of the compositional pro… more
