Day 20 of A Year of Deep Listening

 

BREAKPOINT BLUES, by Federea

This work is intended to be performed in a groupal way (in the broadest possible sense: from a duo to massive groups), in any social context and with people of any age, whether or not they are musicians. Likewise, its execution can be carried out in any imaginable spatial context. Adapted, different and unexpected versions are fervently encouraged. The piece has been made especially for the occasion, and is dedicated with all the love and gratitude to the great and unique Pauline Oliveros on her 90th birthday.

Federea is a composer, improviser and performer born in Argentina and based in Mexico City for several years. His work includes–from a personal and heterodox approach–music, sound art, performing arts and interdisciplinary projects in the fields of creation, research and pedagogy. He has been dedicated to these and other tasks for some time now, while trying to figure out what all this is about.
