Metztli

Contraelegía o Transportarán un cadáver por exprés

Contraelegía o Transportarán un cadáver por exprés

Metztli is the lunar deity from the Aztec tradition. The work is divided in cycles taken from the mayan calendar. Several sonification and musification techniques were use to generate musical materials. This composition is an homage to Armando Luna and was awarded 3rd place at the National Composition Competition for the 150th anniversary of the Mexican National Conservatoire in 2016.
