Work introduction
These two compositions, inspired by the lyrics of Angel Ricardo Dente, represent the equivalent of a question and an answer: “Who …? You with your singing.” The guitar and the cello dialogue with each other to create the right soundscape in which the singing fits: first fragmented, then almost a recitative, at the beginning of the second lyric, and finally the singing fully expressed at the end of the second lyric.
