Paús: Works for Piano

The internationally admired Spanish composer Ramón Paús has written a sequence of music for piano that clearly reflects his wide-ranging and creative personality. Both Piano astrolabio and Piano al origen share passages that are poised between dream and wakefulness, with lush and transparent melodies evoking religious elements in music of transcendent expressivity. Inspired by Dreams, a film by Akira Kurosawa, Piano en Arlés reflects a journey in search of light through shadow and doubt, the music brightened by Paús’ characteristically exciting absorption of jazz elements.
