Sonic Affinities - Festival Mixtur
Palau de la musica catalana - Barcelona, Spain
17/10/25
Sonic Affinities by Ensemble Fractales (BE) brings together rhythmic intensity, poetic textures, and expressive contrasts. Helena Cánovas’s Cada piedra es una isla evokes a resonant landscape shaped by silence and memory. Mikel Urquiza’s Tablinum unfolds in five movements, full of wit, lyricism, and clarity. Berio’s O King, with soprano Maria Hinojosa, pays tribute to Martin Luther King and marks the composer’s centenary. Oren Boneh’s La voix du trait turns sonic gesture into driving rhythm. Miniatures by Molski, Vizzini, and Zisimopoulos offer sharp, compact explorations of contrasting styles.
