Ciudad Vieja (for string trio) was performed on June 3rd at the 2022 AVS Festival & 47 IVS Congress in Columbus GA. The trio involved string players of international renown: Lin He (violin), Hillary Herndon (viola) and Wesley Baldwin (cello).
Program note: in South America, the “Ciudad Vieja” is an emblem that today represents the neighborhood of a city where tradition and modernity coexist. The sounds of the string trio are folkloric sonorities arbitrarily metamorphosed with the help of an academic lens. Tangos, milongas, candombes are all there, all present all absent.
