CD Reviews

Fundamental

latinamericancomposer | Montevideo, Uruguay | 12/10/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"José Maceda (Manila, 1917) is one of the fundamental personalities of the second half of the 20th century. His research work has established a very serious basis for his innovative music in Philippines, and a model of ethics and aesthetics for all Asian art music composers - and, why not, for all Third World composers. Maceda knows very well the Western game, and can create different rules for his proposals, with different syntactic logics and even a different behaviour in the roles of performers and listeners. His music is really fascinating. A second and a third CD should be available soon."
