À propos de cette composition :

[Traduction française non disponible]
The source material for this piece includes samples from Spanish flamenco music and texts by Latin- American writer F.G. Lorca. Verandi used several sound manipulation techniques (for example, shuffling and time stretching) to create a surreal sound world from the flamenco music world. The musical discourse flows as a sequence of superimposed and juxtaposed transformations and confrontations between the flamenco world and the surreal world; Lorca's texts serve as a scafouding like structure to establish the relation between these two worlds. In this piece the intention is to evoke a metaphorical journey across a flamenco dreamland which is corrupted by surreal sonic creatures.

The piece was composed from December 1994 to March 1995 at Birmingham University, in England. The main software used in the composition were GRM tools, Sound Designer and Pro-Tools on the Macintosh computer. Figuras Flamencas belongs to a larger piece which Verandi is currently composing.
