SANS; duo - La Guitarra (Max Addae, 2020)

La Guitarra is a piece for solo classical guitar and typist that explores a new kind of “text setting”. Inspired by the text from Federico Garcia Lorca’s “La Guitarra”, the poem’s text is brought to life using melodic gestures on the guitar (serving as the poem’s “character”) with a sonified keyboard (serving as the poem’s “narrator”). A program written in ChucK uses keyboard input to send MIDI information to Logic, allowing for both the typist and the guitarist to bring the poem to life with their own melodic gestures and perspectives.
