PAISAJE FOLKLÓRICO No.1

Program note courtesy of the composer:
This music is based in some rhythms and colours of Argentinian folklore music. The piece is well balanced between some extended techniques of the bass clarinet and rhythm sections. It is very fun to play, and its duration (around 4 minutes) makes it an ideal choice for a solo program.

About the Composer
Sebastián began studying music at the age of 6 at the Athos Palma choir and orchestra school. He start studying the clarinet at the age of 9 and then piano and bass guitar. He studied clarinet with Eduardo Prado and later with Guillermo Sanchez at the "Manuel de Falla" conservatory of music, where he received the diploma in clarinet performance.

He studied composition with Diego Taranto and Fernando Lerman.
Outside the academic music, his interests in other music like the Argentinian folklore, tango, jazz, and film scoring made him become a session musician as a player and composer. His passion with his two principal instruments the bass clarinet and the bass guitar drove him to compose his own music and record it at his own studio. He formed a duo with pianist Anais Crestin that aims at exploring the original repertoire for bass clarinet and piano, in which they record their first cd Bajo Templado. He plays with double bassist Juan Pablo Navarro in his contemporary Tango septet.
