Description

SKU UME28539

The Seven Haikus, lasting some 8 minutes, were written for the Composers Portrait that closed the author's two-season residency at L’Auditori de Barcelona (2015). The work is inspired by the conciseness and essentiality of the Japanese poetic form, which aspires to capture the epiphanic moment with the immediacy of a calligraphic stroke. The Haikus are compact statements, with an expressive range that belies their miniature timespan. The author conjures in them a wealth of atmospheres, textures and colors from the ensemble of only six players. For all their reduced scale each piece presents a fully-composed argument. Some are calm, lyrical, others more playful, brilliant and witty, without excluding the most dramatic or elegiac moods, as in the sixth of the collection, written "In memoriam Maria del Carme Casablancas".
