Electroacoustics

Comunicações is, in some aspects a "programmatic" electroacoustic piece, mostly based on concrete sounds including sounds from the Lisbon port, communication satellites and texts in more than 30 different languages from a short waves radio, although pure synthesised and instrumental sounds are also an important part of the sound material for the whole composition. The idea of communications not only underlies the sound material, but also the inner relationships upon which the piece was composed. Comunicações was conceived at the Miso Studio in Lisbon - Portugal, and was commissioned by the Lisbon World Fair Expo'98 to be part of a sound installation in the Knowledge of the Sea Pavilion. It was later remixed and subject to some minor changes for the concert situation. The concert version was premiered in Lisbon in November 1998.
