Westchnienie (Performed by Juan Pablo Horcasitas)

"El rondó de los mengues" op. 8 es una pieza para piano compuesta por Inmard Tinmard entre abril y mayo de 2012, y actualmente está incluida en las "Danzas contestanas" op. 39 bajo el nombre "Mengues circulans" (traducción chustera al latín, sí), siendo la danza número V de las mismas.

¿Y qué es eso de los mengues? ¿Nunca han escuchado "mecachis en los mengues" y se han preguntado qué significa? Pues poco antes de componer esta pieza me hacía esa pregunta, sin hallar la respuesta (entonces no tenía internet) y casi por casualidad, gracias a un libro, me enteré de que son unos duendes que, entre otras muchas cosas, esconden objetos de la gente y claro, luego no hay manera de encontrarlos aunque estuvieras segura de que los habías dejado ahí mismo... No es que sean habitantes "típicos" de la Contestania, pero aquí tiene que haberlos también, sólo que difíciles de ver... Les animo a indagar sobre ellos ;)

Composición, interpretación, ilustración y grabación: Inmard Tinmard

El rondó de los mengues (op. 8)
