ALJAFERÍA - 6 Glances (2019)
Right in the middle of the Spanish city of Zaragoza stands the Palace of Aljafería. This magnificent building has been a silent witness of Spanish history since the 11th century. Passing through centuries of changing dynasties and intertwining cultures, Aljafería saved in each of its room the essence of an era.
Aljafería: 6 Glances welcomes six composers inside the walls of the palace. Under the creative direction of Néstor Romero Clemente, the space becomes a stage where composers and performers bring to life this timeless piece of architecture. The first release of Sonic Gate Studios reunites beautiful sceneries under a storyline told entirely with music.
POSTCARDS - Sounds FOR IRELAND (2020)
Collected memories of an Irish landscape through the eyes of a group of composers get a new life reimagined as pieces of music. This album is a journey through a collection of scattered reminiscences of Ireland: evocative sounds resonate in the interior of Christ Church Rathgar reuniting a chamber ensemble on a cold October night.
EUROPEAN PRESS PRIZE - MUSIC (2020)
Each year the European Press Prize reunites the best of journalism in Europe to celebrate the importance of insightful stories. For the award ceremony of 2021 and in collaboration with Are We Europe, five composers wrote the music for each of the awarded stories. The result is an intimate album that shines a light on powerful pieces of journalism.
UPCOMING PROJECTS
Murdúchann
– IN PRODUCTION –
Eight women – four poets and four composers – meet to create a collection of pieces to be presented as a kaleidoscopic concert of reflexions on the subjects of sirens as a symbol of the demystification of women. In this context, women are no longer just a character in the narrative, but the creators of their own story.
