“OVERRUN” (April 2022)
Original composition for string orchestra for the animated short film of the same name by directors Jeremie Cottard and Antonin Deroy.
The music is descriptive, it tries to reflect sensorially the diverse vicissitudes of the main character (an ant) and for it we move in diverse environments, according to the situation that the short film presents us, and that go from the intrigue, the fear, the desperation, the pain or the discovery of a new world of sensorial experiences proper of other worlds but that are in this one.
“PABLO” (February 2022)
Composition for solo piano with a clear minimalist and modal influence, it has at the same time an intimate character. It is based on the book of poems “PABLO” by the writer Daniel Arenas Martín.
Daniel is Pablo’s grandfather, who has been diagnosed with a rare disease such as the “autistic spectrum”, from there, the poems show us in an irrefutable way the great love, compassion, incomprehension and optimism of being alive in equal parts. It is an incredible work that makes you move easily in the face of a harsh reality.
One of the aims of the composition is to give the visibility it deserves to a reality that for many people is still hidden.
