Product Description

A work for Symphony Orchestra which consists of three movements: Armonía Bilingüe, Marcha and Beat Box. This is a work were rhythm takes over to articulate a contemporary and empirical sound world. It is born of my admiration of popular culture and presents no pretensions. The title signifies a suspension, an absence or a liberation from the prejudice of dogmatic elitist musical thinking and styles that have stigmatized symphonic music.
The first movement generates the source material of which the whole work is based. Rhythm , the principal element of the piece, is used as a "continuo", serving to connect all three movements. It is especially highlighted in the second movement which is a kind of instrumental "rap". The final movement "Beat Box" alludes to the large portable radios, aka "ghetto blasters", popular at one time in urban neighborhoods. Thus I conceive the orchestra here as a large radio were music changes from one station to another transmitting and transforming wireless sound vibrations into different moods and grooves.
