Mi piece "Echoes of Time" was premiered today at Cusco, by the Cusco Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of renowned Peruvian violinist and conductor, Carlos Johnson. Inspired by a poem by César Vallejo, "Echoes of Time" refers to the resonances of the past that linger in the present, it reflects how the sounds, images, and emotions of the rural landscape remain alive, like echoes reverberating through time. The work seeks to capture that sense of nostalgia and movement, evoking the rhythm of a life that, though distant, continues to resonate in memory.
Mi piece "Hologramas", an operatic scene for soprano, clarinet and piano, based on a text by renowned Peruvian playwright Maritza Núñez, was premiered at the Hyvinkääsali, a prestigious concert hall located in Hyvinkaa, Finland. Hologramas (Holograms) takes the apparent form of a children's tale, while at the same time revealing the shocking facts about what happens when the most vulnerable suffer the consequences of man's neglect. The piece was performed by Anni Niemelä (soprano), Lauri Vaahtoranta (clarinet) and Jussi Littunen (piano).
