Published by C8 Music (A0.1517601). Dialogues With Ancestors is the result of working with tenor Rafael Montero, a native Latin American who founded El Parnasso to celebrate indigenous South American music. Dialogues With Ancestors is a dialogue between pre-colonial South American culture and contemporary Europe. The song cycle, for tenor and piano, takes us from Nature, through Love, Loss and Justice to Peace. Eleven indigenous songs are the starting point for an evocative duo between tenor and piano, beginning with Wik'unita, marking the wild exuberance of the South American lama, ending with the beautiful serenity of Kkochus al Espíritu Santo. The climax comes with Kkochu al Machula de Tuana, the angry god who seeks vengeance, met with the powerful plainchant Dies Irae. Dialogues With Ancestors will be premiered in Cologne on 4 October 2024, by tenor Rafael Montero and Ukrainian pianist Anastasiia Haisiuk. Duration 20'. Scored for voice and piano.
