Con Clara Peya un agujero de tiempo sensible, como una madriguera de conejo en el mundo de Alicia, corre por las teclas blancas y negras y las líneas de los tatuajes. Desgarro en las transparencias de la arquitectura modernista y sus vitrales azules y columnas de flores,
como una utopía urbana vuelta del revés, que llama a un uso al fin liberado.

(EN)
With Clara Peya a sensitive time hole, like a rabbit hole in Alice's world, runs through the black and white keys and the lines of the tattoos. Tears in the transparency of modernist architecture with its blue stained glass windows and flower columns, like an urban utopia turned upside down, calling for a finally liberated use.

And a little text about the recording process:

« There was some confusion in the air - we moved shooting dates a few times, Clara felt sick and cancelled once, we moved again the schedule and ended up finally one early morning, alone with a grand piano in the legendary Recinte Modernista de Sant Pau. The perfect preparation for a rare recording.

I was in town for the ‘Antisol Negro’ site specific project - documenting modern music in Barcelona and using that material for a unique live show at the end of the week. It was joyfully intense to run around town, but no other locations looked so gorgeous as this art nouveau hospital.

Built by Catalan modernist architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner in between 1901 and 1930 (and inscribed on the unesco list), it faces the Sagrada Familia following a large diagonal in the northeastern part of Barcelona. Filming in such grandiose places is something I mostly avoided for a while - the architecture can simply takes us away from the performance itself, from the music and the magic.

But I have recently been enjoying more and more « pianos in weird situations » - it reminds me of that incredible film we did with Tareq Al-Nasser in the desert of Wadi Rum last year - and this Steinway was majestic. On top of this, that morning Clara was mute - only expressing with gestures. It only added to fill the air got with more beautiful strangeness.

The museum would soon open to visits, we had to hurry - the last take would be the right one - a generous movement around the piano, two autistic artists with their tools in the hands, and a touch of ´duende’ to it. The new genius of piano from Catalonia in all her power. »
