Contemporary Latin American Music for Piano

Original music by Latin American composers of the 20th and 21st centuries, as well as own compositions.

Fidelio ohne Worte

Arrangement for solo piano and recording of the Beethoven’s Opera Fidelio for the Kunst-und Kulturverein/art and the cultural association “Sonnenlicht Tanztheater”. This new Opera version pretends to set the story in a contemporary time and placed it in Tijuana, the northern border of Mexico with the United States, where the characters of the play unfold in a violent city and are affected by the drug war.

Mastering by Guillermo Cuellar.

Lulaby

This lullaby is part of a serie of piano songs inspired on Kichwa beliefs, worldviews and music.

Sor Juana y el Divino Narciso

              Design by Oscar Cueto.

Sinagoga

Music composition based on the character of “The Synagogue” as part of the Sound Installation “El Eco de Narciso”. Comissioned by the Art Collective Tratado Material and exhibited at the Museo Convento de San Francisco y Catacumbas in Lima, Peru. This Sound Installation reflects on the still ongoing relations between the empire and the colony, between West and America, between glory and hell. It is based on Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz’s book “The Echo of the Narcissus”.

Endangered Indigenous Songs

Endangered Indigenous Songs is a long-term project focused on the rescue, preservation and revitalisation of indigenous songs that have been part of Latin American cultures for centuries and which are today threatened with extinction along with the unique worldviews so intimately linked to them. It is based on a unique collection of songs collected during a field-research study that I conducted during February–April 2019 among Wayuu and Kichwa indigenous communities from Colombia and Ecuador.
