Work introduction
Soledat ran del mar (catalan, solitude by the sea) for string orchestra with percussion is a contemplative night journey of a markedly introspective nature. Conceptually, it was created from sound and rhythmic models extracted from nature itself, to later systematize them in a rhythmic and structural way during the compositional process.
Soledat ran del mar was finished on november 2001 and premiered 7th february 2002 in Munich by the HfM Orchester in the big concert hall of the HfMM under the baton of Marcus Landerer.
