Ocho X Radio
Having a great time with the 8 x Radio ("Ocho Por Radio") score of Revueltas, printed by Peer Classical Music.
The English subtitle is "Eight Musicians Broadcasting", which makes sense in a way because Revueltas wrote this specifically for radio performance.
Unfortunately no reference to his ironic "an unsolvable mathematical formula which I tried to solve by means of instruments, but whether I succeeded is up to the listener".
On paper it's a tragicomically piece: every phrase seems to end with a minor note.
Meter changes galore: I noticed 3/8, 5/8, 6/8 cycles, but not necessarily synchronised across all instrument bars.
It took a bit of time to recognize my favourite phrases, mostly in the bassoon part. There's also a nice violin part in the first part which I recognized earlier as a motif in the piece's last part.
A lovely complex score!
