on the chances of María Palitos appearing in sight

for flute, bass clarinet, bassoon, and electronics

2018
Premiered by Diego Morábito, Luis Mora, and Elihu Ortíz León


The computer-generated transcription of a traditional Oaxacan chilena constitutes the core material for this piece. However, the transcription is flawed and full of artifacts, rendering an already unreliable image of a music that is further blurred by  harmonic distortion processes and repetitions. 
Diego Morábito, flute
Luis Mora, bass clarinet
Elihu Ortíz León, bassoon

Recorded at Biblioteca Vasconcelos' auditorium by Carlos Millán. Premiered as part of the concert Aliento Roto, organized as the final concert for Iván Naranjo's course "An experimental approach to composition," organized by Red de Creadores Mexicanos.
