Banda Municipal de Barcelona & José Rafael Pascual-Vilaplana - Miquel Asins Arbó: Works for Symphonic Band (2024) [24/96]

Barcelona was born with little time difference, two important composers in whose lives, despite having no relationship with each other, we find many commonplaces in their artistic corpus, with a very close aesthetic despite developing very personal styles : Miguel Asins Arbó and Carles Suriñach. These two musical creators also agree in dedicating part of their valuable production to the world of music bands, wind and percussion orchestras to which they have been able to extract their timbre potential and have been able to place them in the a natural place of equality that corresponds to the cultivation of contemporary musical art. With this recording, the Barcelona Municipal Band wants to pay a well-deserved tribute to two artists who exported their art from Barcelona to various places and with different proposals, using the band as a vehicle for dissemination and creation.

Surinach and Asins Arbó are an example of authors committed to a territory who have been able to take advantage of these roots to take them off in their contemporaneity. His musical production is strengthened by a solid aesthetic commitment and a personal coherence of creation. Parallel times that generated similar artistic interests, as if born of a vital ecosystem where ethics and aesthetics mix.
