Works
2010
For clarinet, piano and string quartet. Commissioned by the German Ensemble
"Maris-Ensemble".
The conception of the sextet is inspired in elements of the ritualistic dance of the Mapuche people, natives of southern Chile. As for us here in Europe, dance is for
them a ritual, in which repetition plays an important role. "Pürún" means "dance" in Mapudungun, the language of the Mapuche people, while "raquis" comes from the Greek
ῥάχις and it refers to the concept of "spine" or "backbone". This unusual "backbone dance" occurs in the sound context of a symmetric harmony
with a character rich in contrasts, sometimes quite agressive and sometimes extremely gentle.
For ensemble.
For male voice choir. Based on my homonymous poem, written in four languages. Each singer must write an own Text as well.
Music for ensemble of 2, 4, 7, 14 or 28 interpreters. Mutagiróplanos is a structural graphic guide for group improvisation. The piece constitutes of 28 states and each participating person interprets the same number of states. The temporal order of the states may be defined individually or jointly. Each state's duration may be either fixed in advance or improvised. The interpretation of the states and the implicit structure is free.

Controlled imporvisation and experimental music theater for trombone and octophonic live electronics. Premiered at the Saarland Museum in Saarbrücken, Germany in July 2007.
The trombonist, who finds himself surrounded by 8 live controlled speakers, plays his instrument in the most unusual fashions
and acts interacting with the variety of audio signals that come out of the speakers. The musician in charge of the live-electronics builds an each time
different spatialization with pre-recorded material and audio being recorded live during the performance, creating a musical richness in time and space,
offering music interrelations for the public to discover and enjoy. The piece is divided in five parts:
1. Awakening (childhood)
2. Introspection (adolescence)
3. Dialogue (youth)
4. Memories (adulthood)
5. Death (old age)
