The Bringer of Pace
Words and melody grow within this performance led by the baritone voice. The disparity between pieces like Piano Phase and Falla's compositions immerse the listener in an eclectic universe supported only by the sensitivity of the audience. The alteration of the pieces by Caplet, Gaubert, and Falla for baritone voice, takes this music to another dimension. Supported by the visual creations of Spanish video artist Robert Sirvent.
