Cuarteto / Quartet (1996)
for SATB
In this piece human voice is treated in a textural and theatrical way in contrast with a strong and mathematical structure. This dialectic relationship between the sensuality of the sound -as senses and also as sexual condition- and the logic of the structure was inspired by the Sederunt Principes by Perotin, where dialogue between structure and content situates music in a further middle point.
Carla Filipcip Holm (sop); Sofía Kousovitis (alt); Ricardo González Dorrego(tenor); Diego Alonso (bass), Santiago Santero (cond).
recorded by Gustavo Chab, Buenos Aires, 1998
