In “La madre del río” the percussion set takes its character from the sound of rubbed crystal glasses: long sustained sounds without attack.

This is (an) anti-percussive music, where the musical instruments are materials to be rubbed, bowed, or touched rather than struck.

I find this work rather far away from what I am doing now, but the exploration of the percussion set on a certain manner determined  a way of looking at the sound source in a new way. The uses of the percussion set were quickly translated into the world of sound objects and instruments in general.
