Epigramas Pièces Contemporaines Pour Flûtes Rombolà - Str37074

This disk is the story of a voyage; a trip across the land to a chosen place with a particular resonance. The ancient walls that surround a space marked by the centuries are those of the Hermitage of La Anunciada in the Spanish village of Urueña. That is where the perfect sound is found, where I go each time I want my flute to sing in a natural and warm, yet somehow austere setting. Music for solo flute—micro-music that is gigantic in its naked fragility, made for and with an instrument that lives on breath, al fiato. But this is also a voyage through; an untangling of arduous, delicate, brutal, yet innocent compositions— the experience of interpreting a new repertoire, including some newborn pieces. The idea of provoking— rather than passively awaiting—an evolution, a path to reconnoiter, a future in which to project oneself without fear. All of the works on this disk have been premiered by me except for those by José Luis Torá and Alberto Posadas, with whom I had the honor of working very closely. They are an invitation to travel, again and again, reconnoitering this path with the listener who, embarking on this voyage, becomes its final beneficiary.
