«OUEST FRANCE», 11.11.2016
On retiendra particulièrement Javier Torres Maldonado
et son magnifique Interstizi, pour violon et violoncelle. Une
parenté avec la musique de chambre. C'est poignant et quasiment
mystique, d'une pureté qui oblige à fermer les yeux pour mieux
s'envoler.
GERHARD ROHDE, «NEUE MUSIKZEITUNG», JUNE 2010 (about the
opening concert of the Wittener Tage for New Music, WDR of
Cologne, Germany)
The Arditti Quartet, an indispensable part of Witten,
played the electrifying Cuarteto de cuerdas n. 1 by Javier
Torres Maldonado, the Mexican composer living in Italy: five
dense movements, caught between compression and expansion, often
organized on principles that are almost mathematical.

GIANLUIGI MATTIETTI, MUSICA, N. 217,
JUNE 2010, (about the opening concert of the Witten Tage for
New Music, WDR of Cologne, Germany).
This year the opening concert featured the Arditti Quartet,
who played the Cuarteto de cuerdas n. 1 by Javier Torres
Maldonado, one of the most interesting new works in the
festival. The Mexican composer has built this quartet on a
mirror structure, in five movements innervated with continuous
developments, intertwining different musical processes, which
generated a nervous matter, always full of tension but with
highly refined timbre.

Essay by Javier Torres Maldonado:
RELAZIONI
PLURIDIMENSIONALI FRA SUONO, SCRITTURA STRUMENTALE,
ORCHESTRAZIONE AUTOMATICA E COMPOSIZIONE ELETTROACUSTICA IN UN
POSIBLE DÍA, QUASI UN RADIODRAMMA.
This article illustrates the use of automatic
orchestration techniques, derived from the server application
Orchidée, in the work Un posible día, quasi un radiodramma,
composed between 2010 and 2011 by Javier Torres Maldonado. It
sheds light on the derivation processes of musical materials at
the base of this composition, as well as on different solutions of
automatic orchestration, calculated from a brief sample recorded
from a tam-tam.

Essay by Javier Torres Maldonado:
RELAZIONI
PLURIDIMENSIONALI FRA SUONO, SCRITTURA STRUMENTALE,
ORCHESTRAZIONE AUTOMATICA E COMPOSIZIONE ELETTROACUSTICA IN UN
POSIBLE DÍA, QUASI UN RADIODRAMMA.
This article illustrates the use of automatic
orchestration techniques, derived from the server application
Orchidée, in the work Un posible día, quasi un radiodramma,
composed between 2010 and 2011 by Javier Torres Maldonado. It
sheds light on the derivation processes of musical materials at
the base of this composition, as well as on different solutions of
automatic orchestration, calculated from a brief sample recorded
from a tam-tam.
