Program Notes:
This piece has an open instrumentation, only requiring the two instruments chosen to be played by the same soloist. In the case of this event, the amazing Joana Sá plays Alto Sax and Soprano Sax. The electronics are completely derivative of the live microphone feed, and they have the goal of letting the soloists acompany themselves in an simple and dinamic presentation. The composition of this piece was a response to the pandemic, which stops us from making music togheter in all the ways we love the most, so I made it friendly to an eventual online concert. This concert ended up having the conditions for a small audience in person, and I am very thankful for that.
