about

Barcelona-based composer and multi-instrumentalist Jaime del Adarve announces the release of Las Horas, an intimate and delicate collection of pieces for piano and strings.

Las Horas, which translates to The Hours, is a purposefully ambiguous title. It may refer to the divisions of the day, like in La Amanecida, an Andalusian word for dawn Jaime learned from one of the coplas his grandma used to sing. This septet piece captures the passing dynamics of the day, drawing inspiration from Baroque violin concertos, where the individual voices merge into a joint message.

The EP’s title could also talk about the Greek goddesses of the seasons, like Eirene (Peace). She is reflected in La Quietud, a poignant piece for felted upright piano. But most importantly, the title refers to the representation of these goddesses on Earth—the women that nourished us and held us on their laps, Las Haldas. This heart-waming piece for piano and string quartet tries to capture that welcoming feeling of safety when we have ached, and we are held.

Hushed tones and aural atmospheres which amplify quiet rivers of sound. Within the minimal and sparse compositions dwells a golden aura of completeness and Zen like quality that creates a pure listening experience. Michael J Bates
