Mothers

The recording of Metrópoli is released at "Contemporánea", KECD 3 2001, performed by Christian Martínez. The title is Spanish, translatable to metropolis. In Greek it means mothercity. My associations to the title are not only connected to real places such as Buenos Aires, Santiago de Chile, Bogotá, Paris, Rome, New York City and the primordial mothercity, Athens - but just as much to a state of being, a pulsation, an inner glow. The piece is dedicated to Christian Martínez.

Metrópoli (1999, 2000)
