"If I had to choose a key word to describe the suggestions this music is capable of, I would choose “curiosity”. First of all, because the many questions Santi addressed me in recent years about his music’s possible directions in a creative and modern idiom are the result of his curiosity, and finally find an answer in this first and concrete fulfilment. I couldn’t have suggested a better way to make the most of years of study and experiments than transferring, in the form of composition before and audio objects after, that knowledge. 

Secondly, because instrumental music, devoid by definition of a literary part or an image to comment on, needs to be approached by the listener with an attitude of genuine curiosity. And lastly, because this listening intrigue us making us uncertain whether what we’re listening to is the result of a scrupulous writing or of an ensuing elaboration, even improvised.

It doesn’t matter, the journey has just begun…

Well done Santi, well done his fellow adventurers and well done who’s going to listen with the right amount of curiosity!"
