Alessandra Rombola writes of her new release: "This disc is the story of a voyage; a trip across the land to a chosen place with a particular resonance. That ancient walls that surround a space marked by the centuries are those of the Hermitage. Of La Anunciada in the Spanish village of Ureuña. That is where the perfect sound is found, where I go each time I want my flute to sing in a natural and warm, yet somehow austere setting. Music for solo flute-micro-music that is gigantic in its naked fragility, made for and with an instrument that lives on breath, al fiato. But this is also a voyage through; an untangling of ardous, delicate, brutal, yet innocent compositions-the experience of interpreting a new repertoire, including some newborn pieces. The idea of provoking-rather than passively awaiting-an evolution, a path reconnoiter, a future in which to project oneself without fear. All of the works on this disk have been premiered by me except for those by José Luis TorA and Alberto Posadas, with whom I had the honor of working very closely. They are an invitation to travel, again and again, reconnoitering this path with the listener who, embarking on this voyage, becomes its final beneficiary."
