The work will be performed in different Spanish and French cities, allowing it to be appreciated and developed on several occasions.
An opportunity for the evolution of the work
The interpretation of the work on different occasions will allow the musicians to appropriate it and bring their own vision and depth to it. This evolution and growth of the work is a unique opportunity for Alsina and for contemporary music in general.
Future projects
Alsina has several future projects that excite her. Among them, a composition for a French trio with microtonal accordion stands out, an opportunity to explore new timbral possibilities. He also has projects with percussion groups and a stage project that he hopes to discover and explore.
