Product Description
"Blues
en mí" [Blues in E / Blues in me] for piano. Composed in Worpswede
(Germany) from 9th to18th October 2001. Dedicated to Hans-Dieter Ludwig
(H.D.). Duration: 3'20". First performance by the composer at the Music
Hall in Worpswede on 3rd May 2002. This concert was filmed by Reinhard
Hölker, who also held a scholarship at the Künstlerhäuser Worpswede.
The
Argentine first performance was given by Cecilia Strack on 17th December
2003 at the Conservatorio de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, during a
monographic concert (Compositions for Piano by Juan María Solare)
organised by the Professors Silvia Dabul and Manuel Massone.
The title is a pan in Spanish: Blues
in E minor / Blues in me.
At
some moment I had a dream related with this piece. I cannot recall exactly when
or where, but it must have been during 2003; any case not later. Possibly I've
written it down somewhere, I will find it. Reconstructed by memory: It was an
open-air concert, maybe in Worpswede. The audience sits down in banks around
tables, eating; it is a kind of party. A music sounds that comes familiar to
me. I recognized the Blues en mí. A young lady is performing it, whom I
don't absolutely know. I ask myself: "How could this lady get the
score? She have possibly found it on the internet." And actually it
was this dream that ended up convincing me to put some of my scores in
Internet, beginning with the Blues en mí. According to my registers, I
sent the sheet music to Mariano Rocca (webmaster of compositores e
intérpretes, www.ciweb.com.ar) on 2nd November 2003 (ergo, this dream must
have occurred before).
