The concept of this release responds to an idea that arose at the time of programming a concert of consonant contemporary music several years ago by the Non Profit Music Foundation. The aim was not only to increase the loudness of the programme but also the sound texture that the listener would perceive. With this aim in mind, the concert begins with the least possible instrumentation and the number of instruments on site is increased until the last piece is programmed. In this sense, the recital presented on this album meets precisely the same criterion. Thus, the program begins with a solo piano piece followed by a duet between viola and piano. The third piece that can be heard is a string quartet followed by a quartet with piano, that is, piano together with violin, viola, and cello. Then, the texture of another string quartet returns, ending the recital with a piano quintet where all the instrumentalists are on stage. This album contains the world premiere recordings of the works awarded in the first edition of Cum Laude Music Awards.
