Editor's info:
The second CD from this maverick Mexican composer, a former colleague of the legendary Conlon Nancarrow, features a radical new instrument—the hiperión: a portable piano with nylon guitar strings! Over two years went into their conception and fabrication, three years into the compositions and two more into the rehearsal and recording of the music. Brilliantly performed by Ernesto’s razor sharp ensemble this is new music at its most exhilarating. Passionate, exotic minimalism from one of the world’s most dedicated and uncompromising musical experimentalists!
