Afgang 2023: Tomás Gubbins

It could be a garden

'Es könnte “un jardín” sein' is a work where the audience is invited to build their listening experience by drifting between two spaces, and/or specifically amongst an eleven-piece ensemble spread out in one of the rooms.

Under the frame of a concert/installation, 'Es könnte “un jardín” sein' is a work about a garden, a fragile one, which possibly is experiencing the arrival of autumn.

The piece contains mostly long sounds shared by the ensemble through intertwining atmospheres.

Tomás Gubbins (SCL) is a Chilean composer and guitar player who has been developing his work in the fields of improvised, experimental and new music. Particularly interested in the edge between image and sound, Gubbins is currently investigating typologies and graphic devices to notate, represent and delimit certain musical situations.
